Hello,
Recent work for JDK-8202385: "Annotation to mark serial-related fields
and methods" added the java.io.Serial annotation type to the platform.
The intention of this new annotation type is to allow
serialization-related fields and methods to be marked as documentation
and to allow stricter compile-time checking, analogous to the checking
done for @Override. Implementing those stricter serialization-related
checks will be done under JDK-8202056.
Please review the application of java.io.Serial to types in the base
module other than security types:
JDK-8229997: Apply java.io.Serial annotations in java.base
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~darcy/8229997.0/
There are exception classes in java.base that are generated at build
time so I think you'll need to update make/scripts/genExceptions.sh to
ensure that the serialVersionUID in those classes are annotated.
