Interface IOReadableWritable

All Known Subinterfaces:

CopyableValue<T>, DataDistribution, Key<T>, NormalizableKey<T>, ResettableValue<T>, Value

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractID, BlockInfo, BooleanValue, ByteValue, CharValue, Configuration, DoubleValue, FloatValue, IntValue, JobID, ListValue, LongValue, MapValue, NullValue, Pair, Path, Record, ShortValue, SimpleDistribution, SimpleIntegerDistribution, StringValue, UniformDoubleDistribution, UniformIntegerDistribution, UnmodifiableConfiguration

public interface IOReadableWritable

This interface must be implemented by every class whose objects have to be serialized to their binary representation and vice-versa. In particular, records have to implement this interface in order to specify how their data can be transfered to a binary representation. When implementing this Interface make sure that the implementing class has a default (zero-argument) constructor!
