Method Detail

flush

void flush()

Clears the internal deserialisation graphs. This method should be called to process further content on the underlying stream which is not associated with the previously deserialised one. It has no effect on the underlying inputstream.

readObject

Object readObject()
                  throws ClassNotFoundException,
                         IOException

Reads the next content of the underlying stream and interprets it as an Object.

Returns:

the object created from the stream

Throws:

ClassNotFoundException - if a class could not be found, instantiated or accessed.

IOException - when problems occur while reading data
