Obtaining already serialized objects

Hi All,
In my previous release of an application i used to serialize objects of a particular class say A.class
Now i have a new release of my application in which the class A has been changed. Now if I try to read the already serialized objects, it give ClassCastException.
I don't want to loose the old information inside already serialized objects of Old Version. But want to read them and write the full file again with the new Class A objects.
Any suggestion??
Thanks in Advance,
Manjinder Singh

A General serialized object

Hi!
I'm trying to create some server software that will allow any number of applets to connect to the server and communicate with each other. Presumably, only applets of the same type would talk together, though applets could send general string messages. I've created a general serialized object, Packet, which all applets would send to the server, and which the server would then pass on to the destination applet(s).
The problem is that Packet has a field "data" of type Object. When data is something the server knows about, such as a String or a Vector, it does ok. But if the code for the applets creates a new class, say AppletPacket (which is serializable), and sets somePacket.data to an object of type AppletPacket, the server throws errors when it is reading the somePacket from its objectinputstream, saying it can't typecast something of type AppletPacket. But I'm not typecasting anywhere! The server doesn't have to know anything about what data represents, it just needs to send it on, and presumably the destination applets will know what to do with it.
Can anyone suggest a work around, or tell me what I have to do so that applets can send a general Object that may represent a class the server doesn't know about and not have the server throw an error?
Thanx
Jim D.

Just to clairify: The server doesn't have to do anything with the content of "data" apart from holding on to it, and pass it to another applet?
If that's the case substitute the Object in the "data" field for an array of bytes obtained by having the applet run the "Object" through ObjectOutputStream.
What's happening is that the server is deserializing the Packet when it arrives in the JVM of the server, when it comes across the "data" field it looks to see what class the instance really is, and fails as you dscribe if it doesn't have the class definition.

Direct DB access from Session Bean w/o using Serialized Objects

I am developing a system where I am receiving some messages (data ) inside session bean and I want to log that data into data base �.i.e inserting that data in to various tables. I am not showing that data to client ( that is taken care by another application).
So I am directly calling insert methods on various tables instead of going for serialized classes for each of that tables and calling setter methods. Is this approach correct? Or this will create nightmares when millions of messages are to be logged? Do I have to make serialized objects? Please post the suggestions ..Thank you in advance.
If session bean is making direct inserts in the DB using Helper classes as shown below �is there any problem of concurrency?? Means multiple session bean instances inserting data in the same table using the helper class will create any problems?? I am using MySql db presently. Or all will work fine coz I am using the data source and pool available in welogic app server?
Is this a good approach if my application is doing inserts 90% of times? or I have to use entity beans or serialized objects encapsulating each class?
public class Logger implements SessionBean
DAO dao = getDAO();
dao.insertXyzLog(�x�, �y�,�.);
private DAO getDAO(){
if(Dao == null) {
oao = DAOFactory.getDAO();
return Dao;
//other std methods
public interface DAO {
// methods to directly insert data in to the tables
//some methods to look for required value in another tables
public abstract void insertXyzLog (String x, Stringy, ��.);
public class DAOImpl implements DAO {
// look up for JNDI data sourse
//method to return connection
public void insertXyzLog (String x, Stirng y�){
//SQLs for inserting into Xyz table using connection obtained above.

Hi,
Nothing wrong in using Helper class to insert into table. It won't create problem as long as your database server able to handle that many request from client.
If you use weblogic server and datasource, the server will take care of all connection pool management depending upon your configuration parameters.
Moreover, insert won't lock the table. So you need not worry about those things.
Best Luck,

FileUpload problem: InputStream does not contain a serialized object

Hi All,
I'm using the FileUpload component in a JSPDynPage and the htmlb component seems to work fine but I cannot read the file (InputStream). I get the following error(IOException): "InputStream does not contain a serialized object".
Please let me know what is wrong with my code. This is a part of the code I used:
public FileInputStream sourceFileInput;
public ObjectInputStream input;
FileUpload fu;
fu = (FileUpload) this.getComponentByName("myFileUpload");
IFileParam fileParam = ((FileUpload) getComponentByName("myFileUpload")).getFile();
File f       = fileParam.getFile();
file         = fu.getFile().getFile();
absolutepath = fu.getFile().getFile().getAbsolutePath();
this.sourceFileInput = new FileInputStream(file);
input = new ObjectInputStream(sourceFileInput);
The last line of code seems to generate te error.

Hi,
I have found the answers, thank you both.
(I included the examle code. Perhaps of some use to someone.)
FileUpload fu;
fu = null;
fu = (FileUpload) this.getComponentByName("myFileUpload");
//       this is the temporary file
if (fu != null) {
     IFileParam fileParam = ((FileUpload) getComponentByName("myFileUpload")).getFile();
     if (fileParam != null) {
          // get info about this file and create a FileInputStream
          File f = fileParam.getFile();
          if (f != null) {
               try {
                    fis = new FileInputStream(f);
               // process exceptions opening files
               catch (FileNotFoundException ex) {
                    myBean.setMessage(

     try {

     } catch (IOException e) {

               "1" + e.getLocalizedMessage());

Java.io.StreamCorruptedException: InputStream does not contain a serialized object

          I have an applet which calls a JSP to write data object to the db and then the

Creating a converter for old serialized objects

Hi,
I have an application, which writes class objects to file, and then reads the class objects from file when the application is started up.
Now the problem is, that if i create/modify/etc fields in the class, then all my data is lost (i.e., i cant read the data in when the application starts)....
Now the docs state that a field can be added, and an old serialized object will still be recoverable...well for some reason this only works when it wants....i have tried several times, and its not a guarenteed thing....
So i was wondering, is there any way to create an application, which can grab an old serialized version of an object (i.e. class), have a copy of the old class, and the new class, and somehow cast the old to the new...or something of that sort?
thanks a lot!

This might be of some help:

How to divide big serialized object in parts to be able to save as Blob typ

Hi,
Actually i have serialize a big XML document object and want to save in a field of type Blob. As Blob size is 64k. So if the serialized object is greater than 64k. It gives me error of size.Can anybody tell how to break large serialized objects.
I am using this code
File f = new File("out.ser");
FileInputStream fin = new FileInputStream(f);
p = farCon.prepareStatement("insert into TeeColor values('3',?)");
p.setBinaryStream(1, fin, f.length());
p.executeUpdate();
This code works fine if the size of out.ser file is less than 64k. But does not work for bigger sizes
Please help me out
Thanks

Read your data from the file into a byte array, then extract 64K at a time into a smaller byte array, and use a ByteArrayInputStream for updating the database.

OID and binding java serialized object

Hi there,
How are you doing? I am trying to bind a serialized java object to a name in Oracle Internet Diectory (oid) using JNDI.
it gives me an errror.
"OperationNotSupported LDAPA error 53: Unwilling to perform:
I have directory manager 2.1.1 and JNDI 1.2.1
I arrpeciate any clue and/or help
Thanks

Hello:
Although OID supports calls from JNDI, the JNDI schema for storing JAVA serialized objects is not yet a standard part of the OID schema. This is easy to remedy. Go to javasoft.sun.com and download the JNDI schema for java serialized objects and load the attributes and objectclasses into OID from the ldif files provided at this web site. . Make sure the attributes are loaded before the objectclasses.
Once this schema is loaded this problem should go away
Use the ldapmodify command line tool to add the schema items from the ldif file.
Let me know if you need further assistance setting this up. A future version of OID will contain these schema items standard.
Thanks,
Jay

If you registered the software you should be able to find the serial number thru your Adobe account online.
