As part of the serialization cleanup, I would like to remove the serialization warning below from the non-public API(mostly motif and windows L&Fs). Later I will remove it from the public API and move this warning to the "javax.swing" package spec.
* <strong>Warning:</strong> * Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with * future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate * for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same * version of Swing. A future release of Swing will provide support for * long term persistence. Note that this warning is useless because the UI delegates(parts of L&F) should never be serialized. Such classes were marked as "Serializable" by accident. If the component like JButton is serialized then parts related to the L&F are removed from the stream. This is because default L&F could be different before/after serialization. ------------- Commit messages: - 8256014: Eliminate the warning about serialization in non-public API of Swing Changes: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/1110/files Webrev: https://webrevs.openjdk.java.net/?repo=jdk&pr=1110&range=00 Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8256014 Stats: 1405 lines in 67 files changed: 404 ins; 700 del; 301 mod Patch: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/1110.diff Fetch: git fetch https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk pull/1110/head:pull/1110 PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/1110
