Hi Everyone. I have a problem where objects cannot be read using ObjectInputStream. I have a pretty good idea on what the error is caused by, but I'd like to make sure and also figure out how to overcome the problem. I don't have any sample codes but an example should suffice. I make an application that takes orders from customers and serializes objects containing relevant information to a file. Once I close the output stream (which I assume it does automatically when the application is closed) opening any additional streams to that file will cause a StreamCorruptedException when reading from it again. I think the error is caused because ObjectOutputStream writes a header in it's constructor, so the file will have several headers and ObjectInputStream only expects a single header. So is there anyway I can keep writing objects to a single file and retrieve them properly? |

Why not store the information in your own format? |
