Interface IndirectlySerializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

EJBLocalHomeImpl, EJBLocalObjectImpl, EJBLocalObjectInvocationHandler, ReadOnlyEJBLocalHomeImpl, TimerWrapper

public interface IndirectlySerializable

An interface that allows Non-Serializable objects to be persisted. Any non serializable object that needs to be persisted needs to implement this interface. The getSerializableObjectFactory() method will be called to get a SerilizableObjectFactory that can be persisted. The SerializableObjectFactory can later be de-serialized and the createObject() will be invoked to get the original Non-Serializable object. It is assumed that the SerializableObjectFactory contains enough data that can be used to restore the original state of the object that existed at the time of Serilization
