Hi,
it does not work.
As i know when i try to save the object jvm also create hashcode(serialVersionUID ) for our class and also save it with the object.and when i pick the object from the memory after changing the name of the variable at that time hash code generated by the jvm for our class is different from the privous one that is save in memory so jvm throws class cast exception.
can any body explain what information jvm save with the object during Serialization.?
and how de serialization work?
