Sebb commented on NET-463:
--------------------------
Actually CopyOnWriteArrayList is Serializable, but the entries are of type
EventListener, which may not be.
> Does it make sense for NET classes to be Serializable?

> Key: NET-463

> Project: Commons Net
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Sebb
>
> A few of the NET classes currently implement Serializable.
> However, it's doubtful that serialization would actually work.
> There are no unit tests.
> Also, what is the use-case for it?
> Can we drop the Serializable references?
> The classes that implement Serializable currently are:
> ftp.FTPFile
> ntp.TimeStamp
> util.ListenerList (contains non-serialisable field of type
> CopyOnWriteArrayList)
> ProtocolCommandSupport
