a good practice would be to handle the IOException in code //lets assume foo was initialised to a Foo class and supposedly serialised earlier (possibly in an earlier (init()) method)
String result; try { result = foo.getNewMethod() } catch(IOException ioe) { System.out.println("foo is corrupt will reconstruct..") foo = new Foo(); result = foo.getNewMethod(); } Viel Gluck Martin-- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- This e-mail message (including attachments, if any) is intended for the use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed and may contain information that is privileged, proprietary , confidential and exempt from disclosure.
