SerializationTester: Why would an object fail?

[Adhamh Findlay]

Hello,

I'm fairly new to this world of beans and serialization, so I need some help
determining why a custom class would not be serializable.


Here is what I get when I run SerializationTester:

Your class : [Company]
  *** Can't get a serializer for 'Company' !! ***
  ===> 'Not supported' or 'Wrong configuration' !!

Below is my the code for the Company class that I need to send over the
wire.  It's pretty simple, so I'm clueless on this...  Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Adhamh


//Company.java class

public class Company implements java.io.Serializable {

    private String agmtNumber;
    private String SAPMarketingPartNumber;
    private String startDate;
    private String businessName;

    public Company() {
    }

    public Company(String agmtNumber, String sap, String startDate, String
businessName) {
        setAgmtNumber(agmtNumber);
        setSAPMarketingPartNumber(sap);
        setStartDate(startDate);
        setBusinessName(businessName);
    }

    public void setAgmtNumber(String value) {
        agmtNumber = value;
    }
    public String agmtNumber() {
        return agmtNumber;
    }
    public void setSAPMarketingPartNumber(String value) {
        SAPMarketingPartNumber = value;
    }
    public String SAPMarketingPartNumber() {
        return SAPMarketingPartNumber;
    }
    public void setStartDate(String value) {
        startDate = value;
    }
    public String startDate() {
        return startDate;
    }
    public void setBusinessName(String value) {
        businessName = value;
    }
    public String businessName() {
        return businessName;
    }

}
