Hello,
I have two Java applications that exchange serialized
objects. Although I would like to ultimately convert both
to C# it's a pretty monumental task, especially for
someone just learning both langauges. I thought it might
be more reasonable to start with simply converting the
simpler one of the two and getting it to work. I have
used Microsoft's free Java to C# converter to convert most
of the code, but of course I must complete some of the
conversions manually. I have this basic concern,
however: Will the serialization done in C# be the same as
that done in Java? Also, do all Java compilers serialize
the same way for the same source code? How do I determine
exactly what the serialized data looks like, both
theoretically and emperically? I'd like to be able to
view it at the byte level just for general debugging
purposes. (Of course I could use a packet sniffer, but
that's a little too gross even for a hardware person like
me!)
Thanks,
Ray Mitchell
