I have a Serialized class that I need to send as an object via Bluetooth, and also implements Runnable. As such, I set a few variables first, then send it as an object to be executed by another Android device, which will then set its result into a variable, and send back the same object with the result in one of the variables. I have been using the following two methods to serialize my object and get a ByteArray before sending them through the OutputStream of my BluetoothSocket, and to deserialize that ByteArray to get back my object.
public static byte[] serializeObject(Object o) throws IOException {
ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
ObjectOutput out = new ObjectOutputStream(bos);
out.writeObject(o);
out.flush();
out.close();
// Get the bytes of the serialized object
byte[] buf = bos.toByteArray();
return buf;
}
public static Object deserializeObject(byte[] b) throws OptionalDataException, ClassNotFoundException, IOException {
ByteArrayInputStream bis = new ByteArrayInputStream(b);
ObjectInputStream in = new ObjectInputStream(bis);
Object object = in.readObject();
in.close();
return object;
}
I still got the same error from these two methods, so I tried to merge it with the methods I use to send my ByteArray via BluetoothSocket's OutputStream, as shown below.
public void sendObject(Object obj) throws IOException{
ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream() ;
ObjectOutputStream out = new ObjectOutputStream( bos );
out.writeObject(obj);
out.flush();
out.close();
byte[] buf = bos.toByteArray();
sendByteArray(buf);
}
public void sendByteArray(byte[] buffer, int offset, int count) throws IOException{
bluetoothSocket.getOutputStream().write(buffer, offset, count);
}
public Object getObject() throws IOException, ClassNotFoundException{
byte[] buffer = new byte[10240];
Object obj = null;
if(bluetoothSocket.getInputStream().available() > 0){
bluetoothSocket.getInputStream().read(buffer);
ByteArrayInputStream b = new ByteArrayInputStream(buffer);
ObjectInputStream o = new ObjectInputStream(b);
obj = o.readObject();
}
return obj;
}
In the end, I get the same error when deserializing the object at the receiving device, as shown below.
java.io.StreamCorruptedException
at java.io.ObjectInputStream.readStreamHeader (ObjectInputStream.java:2102)
at java.io.ObjectInputStream.<init>(ObjectInputStream.java:372)
and so on...
Can anybody please help? I'm desperate, this has been killing me for weeks, and I need this to work in a few days. :S
