Hi -
I thought we had fixed that one although it turns out the unit test was a bit
inadequate. Generally its not a good idea to make an interface implement serializable
as there may be a perfectly valid implementation that can't implement serializable.
Probably better to make as many of the implementations as possible serializable. I'll
have a look at this.

Subject: [Biojava-l] Serialization of SimpleSequences
Hello,
While transferring some sequences via serialization, I noticed that all
my Features are getting lost. After some digging around, it seems as if
Java doesn't serialize the FeatureHolder inside the sequence (I was
working with SimpleSequence objects). Even though a
NotSerializableException is not thrown, the FeatureHolder is missing.
After making the FeatureHolder interface in Biojava extend Serializable,
the problem disappeared. How much will this change affect the rest of
the code - ie. is there a good reason why FeatureHolders are not
serializable?
Cheers,
Vasa
