Hi!
The javadoc of java.io.Serial [1] says that serialVersionUID is private.
But the javadoc of Serializable [2] says it can have any access modifier.
Who is right here? When I write the following code, should there be a
warning or not?
import java.io.Serial;import java.io.Serializable;
public class SerExample implements Serializable {
@Serial // warning or not?
public static final long serialVersionUID = 2L;}
This question originated in this [3] discussion in the IDEA bugtracker.
With best regards, Zheka.
