Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
java.lang.Object	fromBinary(byte[] bytes, scala.Option<java.lang.Class<?>> clazz) Produces an object from an array of bytes, with an optional type-hint; the class should be loaded using ActorSystem.dynamicAccess.
java.lang.Object	fromBinary(java.nio.ByteBuffer buf, java.lang.String manifest) Produces an object from a ByteBuffer, with an optional type-hint; the class should be loaded using ActorSystem.dynamicAccess.
int	identifier() Globally unique serialization identifier configured in the reference.conf.
boolean	includeManifest() Returns whether this serializer needs a manifest in the fromBinary method
ExtendedActorSystem	system() Actor system which is required by most serializer implementations.
byte[]	toBinary(java.lang.Object o) Serializes the given object into an Array of Byte
void	toBinary(java.lang.Object o, java.nio.ByteBuffer buf) Serializes the given object into the ByteBuffer.
