Commons IO - Suggestion

2005-01-05 Thread Capella Thomas
Hi,

I am new to this mailing list. I was browsing the
Commons IO component and noticed that some of the
utility classes that I have developed can be added.
For example I have SerializeObject class that can save
and retrieve objects. It can also find the serial
version id of a given object. 

How do I go about adding this class to this component?

Thanks,
Bala

First please prefix emails by [io] as per the mailing list instructions.
Second, read the guidance available on the jakarta websites about patching 
and contributing.

Third, please make proposals before making large amounts of effort in 
writing features.

On your points, Serialization to and from an object is covered by 
SerializationUtils in [lang]. While ideally this code should have been in 
[io], we are unlikely to dupilcate it. A method to obtain the serialization 
version id is also unlikely to get my support as it is an IDE-time function, 
not a runtime function.
