[ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-1579?page=comments#action_12316432 ] Bela Ban commented on JBAS-1579: -------------------------------- Fixed all classes in org.jboss.cache package > Need to cleanup the serialVersionUIDs for Serializable/Externalizable classes > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: JBAS-1579 > URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-1579 > Project: JBoss Application Server > Type: Bug > Versions: JBossAS-4.0.2RC1, JBossAS-4.0.1 SP1 > Reporter: Scott M Stark > Assignee: Clebert Suconic > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: JBossAS-4.0.2 Final > Attachments: SerializableHasSerialVersionUIDField.zip, TestResultSample.zip, compatibilityCheckProposedSourceCde.zip > > > I'm seeing incomptibilities between versions that are simply due to the fact that Serializable/Externalizable classes are letting their serialVersionUIDs float instead of explicitly defining them. We need to get this cleaned up. There should not be a single Serializable/Externalizable class that does not fix its serialVersionUID and then take responsibility for maintaining compatibility with the indicated version. > The attached SerializableHasSerialVersionUIDField.zip unzips to create a SerializableHasSerialVersionUIDField-index.html and SerializableHasSerialVersionUIDField directory which is a report of all classes in the 4.0 codebase that are not defining a serialVersionUID as they should. > The JDK object serialization spec defines all you need to know about the apis and contracts for object serialization: > http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/serialization/spec/serialTOC.html > In particular, Versioning of Serializable Objects: > http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/serialization/spec/version.html#wp9419 > talks about binary compatibility and what is available to manage this. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - If you want more information on JIRA, or have a bug to report see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira |
