You just need to implement the Interface Serializable and don't have to implements any methods.This is because Serialiazble Interface has no methods.Its just a Marker/Tag Interface which tells that this object is serilizable.ThanksGautam

Yes suresh you r absolutely correct.

I think,

Really, Serialized interface containa a single variable

orginal form of serialized interface is

interface serialzed

{

int var=value;(i cant remember the variable name and value)

}

In order to serialize your object first of all you need to implement 'java.io.serializable' interface and need not implement any methods because 'serializable' is a marker interface which doesn't have any methods or variables.

Later on you need to create an 'ObjectOutputStream' object and by using the method 'writeObject(Object)' which is in 'ObjectOutputStream' class you can serialize your object.
