Reports Serializable classes that do not implement readObject() and writeObject() methods.

If readObject() and writeObject() methods are not implemented, the default serialization algorithms are used, which may be sub-optimal for performance and compatibility in many environments.

Use the following options to configure the inspection:

  • List classes whose inheritors should not be reported by this inspection. This is meant for classes that inherit Serializable from a superclass but are not intended for serialization.
  • Whether to ignore Serializable classes without non-static fields.
  • Whether to ignore Serializable anonymous classes.
