Deserialization
Java Beans components can be stored by serialization. This
means that their complete state can be saved in a binary format.
Visaj allows you to specify that a component should be initialized by
deserialization. If you select this option, then the generated code
will have just one line for the component - code to read the binary
data which represents the component's state in from a classloader
resource, and to use this data to construct the object. All property
settings are included in the binary file, so no code is generated for
them.
When you generate code, Visaj will save the component in serialized
form into the same directory as the code file. Because the serialized
data is read in as a classloader resource, it should be kept with the
class files; see the user manual for more information.
