Method Detail

serialize

public static void serialize(NodeState state,
                             OutputStream stream)
                      throws Exception

Serializes the specified NodeState object to the given binary stream.

Parameters:

state - state to serialize

stream - the stream where the state should be serialized to

Throws:

Exception - if an error occurs during the serialization

See Also:

deserialize(NodeState, InputStream)

deserialize

public static void deserialize(NodeState state,
                               InputStream stream)
                        throws Exception

Deserializes a NodeState object from the given binary stream.

Parameters:

state - state to deserialize

stream - the stream where the state should be deserialized from

Throws:

Exception - if an error occurs during the deserialization

See Also:

serialize(NodeState, OutputStream)

serialize

public static void serialize(PropertyState state,
                             OutputStream stream,
                             BLOBStore blobStore)
                      throws Exception

Serializes the specified PropertyState object to the given binary stream. Binary values are stored in the specified BLOBStore.

Parameters:

state - state to serialize

stream - the stream where the state should be serialized to

blobStore - handler for BLOB data

Throws:

Exception - if an error occurs during the serialization

See Also:

deserialize(PropertyState, InputStream,BLOBStore)

deserialize

public static void deserialize(PropertyState state,
                               InputStream stream,
                               BLOBStore blobStore)
                        throws Exception

Deserializes a PropertyState object from the given binary stream. Binary values are retrieved from the specified BLOBStore.

Parameters:

state - state to deserialize

stream - the stream where the state should be deserialized from

blobStore - handler for BLOB data

Throws:

Exception - if an error occurs during the deserialization

See Also:

serialize(PropertyState, OutputStream, BLOBStore)

serialize

public static void serialize(NodeReferences refs,
                             OutputStream stream)
                      throws Exception

Serializes the specified NodeReferences object to the given binary stream.

Parameters:

refs - object to serialize

stream - the stream where the object should be serialized to

Throws:

Exception - if an error occurs during the serialization

See Also:

deserialize(NodeReferences, InputStream)

deserialize

public static void deserialize(NodeReferences refs,
                               InputStream stream)
                        throws Exception

Deserializes a NodeReferences object from the given binary stream.

Parameters:

refs - object to deserialize

stream - the stream where the object should be deserialized from
