writeObject

public void writeObject(OutputStream stream,
                        Object object)
                 throws IOException

Description copied from interface: Serializer

Write an object to a stream. An implementation must ensure that the object is written completely before returning. An implementation is free to flush or close the given stream as it sees fit, but is not required to do either. An implementation can expect that the stream is already buffered, so additional buffering is not required for performance.

Throws:

IOException

                  throws IOException,
