Yes, except they're now shared by all instances of the class. That may or may not be desirable, depending on the app. If your object is a singleton, it shouldn't matter. (Interestingly, you can specify transient on a static field; java.lang.Class does implement Serializable, but does not provide readObject() or writeObject() methods that might actually do something with static fields.) - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
