> Remove Serializable
> -------------------
>
> Key: BCEL-242
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BCEL-242
> Project: Commons BCEL
> Issue Type: Wish
> Reporter: Charles Honton
> Fix For: 6.0
>
>
> While we're in the midst of bringing BCEL up to date, can we remove the
> unnecessary code.
> It is unlikely that any application needs to serialize BCEL state and the
> class that BCEL generates is already "serialized". (And serializatoin is
> hard to get right)
> It is unlikely that opcodes or instructions need to be compared, so
> equals/hashCode is excess.
> Cloning is hard to get right and probably not necessary.
