NAME

serialver - Returns the serial version UID for specified classes.

SYNOPSIS

serialver [ options ] [ classnames ]

The command-line options. See Options.
The classes for which the serialVersionUID is to be returned.

DESCRIPTION

The serialver command returns the serialVersionUID for one or more classes in a form suitable for copying into an evolving class. When called with no arguments, the serialver command prints a usage line.

OPTIONS


Sets the search path for application classes and resources. Separate classes and resources with a colon (:).

Displays a simple user interface. Enter the full class name and press either the Enter key or the Show button to display the serialVersionUID.

Passes option to the Java Virtual Machine, where option is one of the options described on the reference page for the Java application launcher. For example, -J-Xms48m sets the startup memory to 48 MB. See java(1).

NOTES

The serialver command loads and initializes the specified classes in its virtual machine, and by default, it does not set a security manager. If the serialver command is to be run with untrusted classes, then a security manager can be set with the following option:

-J-Djava.security.manager

When necessary, a security policy can be specified with the following option:

-J-Djava.security.policy=<policy file>
