Hi Cay,
The enhancements to javac's serial lint checking have not been
implemented as of yet. For now, @Serial is just documentation.

I am trying to give an example of the utility of the @Serial
annotation. But the JDK 17 javac doesn't seem to do anything with it.
I tried:
@Serial private void readObject(java.io.ObjectInputStream stream, int
shouldNotHaveThisParam) throws IOException, ClassNotFoundException
@Serial private static final String serialVersionUID = "Fred";
@Serial public String getName() { ... }
Is there some flag that I need to use? I tried -Xlint:serial, but it
didn't make a difference.
Thanks,
Cay
