Class SerializableTranscoder

java.lang.Object

com.couchbase.client.java.codec.SerializableTranscoder

All Implemented Interfaces:

Transcoder

public class SerializableTranscoder
extends Object
implements Transcoder

This transcoder allows to serialize and deserialize objects if they implement the Serializable interface.

Please note that this transcoder is NOT turning the value into a JSON representation, rather it is using the java object serialization which will look to the server like an opaque binary blob. It is useful though if you want to store and retrieve arbitrary java objects and use couchbase as a cache for them.
