Java.io.ObjectInputStream Class in Java | Set 1
Note :
Java codes mentioned in this article won’t run on Online IDE as the file used in the code doesn’t exists online. So, to verify the working of the codes, you can copy them to your System and can run it over there.
More Methods of ObjectInputStream Class :

  • defaultReadObject() : java.io.ObjectInputStream.defaultReadObject() reads the non-static field of the current class from the Input Stream. We use readObject() method of the serialized class to call this method.
    Syntax :
    public void defaultReadObject()
    Parameters : 
    -----------
    Return : 
    void
    Exception :
    -> IOException : in case of any IO error occurs.
    -> ClassNotFoundException : if the class of Object(being serialized) is not found
    -> NotActiveException : if the Stream is not reading.
    
  • readObject() : java.io.ObjectInputStream.readObject() reads an object from the serialized class. This method is used to call the defaultReadObject. If the class is deserialized by defaut, then it can be overridden using the readObject and writeObject methods.
    Syntax :
    public void defaultReadObject()
    Parameters : 
    public final Object readObject()
    Return : 
    void
    Exception :
    -> IOException : in case of any IO error occurs.
    -> ClassNotFoundException : if the class of Object(being serialized) is not found
    -> OptionalDataException : if instead of object, primitive data is found.
    -> InvalidClassException : is there is something wrong with serialized class
