We will have to make the other member(which u dont want to serailize) as transient. Although making a member as transient is not the best way...( as what will we do if we have 25 members and we need to serialize only 1 out of them...making all the others transient is not the best practice)

Yes, it is possible to serialize a single member in a class from the externializable interface as we can control the searization process with the and by searilizing the single memer through writeExternal() and readExternal() method we can do it.
