-/**
- * Only the identity of the class of an Externalizable instance is
- * written in the serialization stream and it is the responsibility
- * of the class to save and restore the contents of its instances.
- *
- * The writeExternal and readExternal methods of the Externalizable
- * interface are implemented by a class to give the class complete
- * control over the format and contents of the stream for an object
- * and its supertypes. These methods must explicitly
- * coordinate with the supertype to save its state. These methods supersede
- * customized implementations of writeObject and readObject methods.
- *
- * Object Serialization uses the Serializable and Externalizable
- * interfaces. Object persistence mechanisms can use them as well. Each
- * object to be stored is tested for the Externalizable interface. If
- * the object supports Externalizable, the writeExternal method is called. If the
- * object does not support Externalizable and does implement
- * Serializable, the object is saved using
- * ObjectOutputStream.
When an Externalizable object is
- * reconstructed, an instance is created using the public no-arg
- * constructor, then the readExternal method called. Serializable
- * objects are restored by reading them from an ObjectInputStream.
- *
- * An Externalizable instance can designate a substitution object via
- * the writeReplace and readResolve methods documented in the Serializable
- * interface.
