Thanks Chris, your experience on this matter is very welcome. Even if it
does make me feel a little depressed ;-)
Best regards,
George

Hi George,
I wonder what lessons other class library development teams have learned
in this area ?
I guess that our experience from Wonka can be summed up as "serialization is a
PITA". Most of the time the problem can be solved, you just never know where
the next one will pop up. We advise our cutomers against using serialization
as a way to exchange data between VMs - use XML, use Hessian, use anything
except serialization. That goes for RMI too. I guess it's easier for us to
take this line in an embedded environment than in the context of, say, J2EE.
Good luck,
Chris
