Can an object serialize itself?

Thank you.

Hi,

Yes of course. The serialization process has nothing to do with the
caller.

Of course, several things should be considered such as the point the
object will be serialized etc.

Feel free to ask any further questions.
Cheers,
Moty

It is the opinion of some of the developers where I work, that the
proper location for a class' serialization and deserialization methods
are in the class itself, so yes, a class can most definitely serialize/
deserialize itself.
