Question

I have a class A that extends another class B that implements Serializable interface.
I want to automatically generate the serialVersionUID for class A using the Eclipse.

If class A was the class that implements Serializable Eclipse will have a error compilation. Please help me generate it automatically.

class A

public class QueryOptionModel extends BaseModelData {



}

class b – gxt api

public class BaseModelData implements ModelData, Serializable

Answer 1

If you have a class which implements Serializable interface but doesn’t specify a serialVersionUID, you’ll get a warning. You can automatically ask Eclipse to fix that warning by clicking on the balloon which pops up on that line. Make sure you don’t generate a random but a logical serialVersionUID i.e. 0 or 1 if this is the first draft of your serilizable class.
