Serializes properties and deserializes by using the constructor. This assumes that all backed properties are set via the constructor and the class is immutable.

A simple class that wraps a byte array and makes the equals/hashCode/toString methods work as you actually expect. In an ideal JVM this would be a value type and be completely overhead free. Project Valhalla is adding such functionality to Java, but it wont arrive for a few years yet

This represents a token in the serialized stream for an instance of a type that implements SerializeAsToken

A base class for implementing large objects / components / services that need to serialize themselves to a string token to indicate which instance the token is a serialized form of.

This interface should be implemented by classes that want to substitute a token representation of themselves if they are serialized because they have a lot of internal state that does not serialize (well).

A Kryo serializer for SerializeAsToken implementations.

A type safe wrapper around a byte array that contains a serialised object. You can call SerializedBytes.deserialize to get the original object back.

A serialiser that avoids writing the wrapper class to the byte stream, thus ensuring SerializedBytes is a pure type safety hack.

A serialisation engine that knows how to deserialise code inside a sandbox

Thrown during deserialisation to indicate that an attachment needed to construct the WireTransaction is not found

Serialization utilities, using the Kryo framework with a custom serialiser for immutable data classes and a dead simple, totally non-extensible binary (sub)format.

Can be called on any object to convert it to a byte array (wrapped by SerializedBytes), regardless of whether the type is marked as serializable or was designed for it (so be careful)
