public interface Deserializer

Deserializing an object. Custom deserializers should extend from AbstractDeserializer to avoid issues with signature changes.

boolean	isReadResolve()
java.lang.Object	readLengthList(AbstractHessianInput in, int length)
java.lang.Object	readList(AbstractHessianInput in, int length)
java.lang.Object	readMap(AbstractHessianInput in)
java.lang.Object	readObject(AbstractHessianInput in)
java.lang.Object	readObject(AbstractHessianInput in, java.lang.Object[] fields) Reads the object from the input stream, given the field definition.
java.lang.Object	readObject(AbstractHessianInput in, java.lang.String[] fieldNames)
