Hello.
Please review my JDK 8 fix for
6226715: (ann) java.lang.annotation.AnnotationTypeMismatchException
could not be serialized
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~darcy/6226715.0/
This fix includes the unusual step of marking a non-transient field
transient in a serialiable class, but the class can't meaningfully be
serialized today anyway so this change should have no adverse effect in
practice.
For good code hygiene, the new readObject method explicitly sets the now
transient field in question.
Thanks,
-Joe
