在Windows中序列化后在ubuntu中加载.ser文件

Question

I wrote a GUI code (Java Eclipse) and compressed it to JAR. The code loads data from .ser serialized file. It loads fine when using windows but cannot recognize the .ser file when using ubuntu. Now , after saving a new .ser in ubuntu , it works just fine but I need the old .ser file to work. any idea how can I do that? Thank you!

Answer 1

Use a portable serialization format. In the Windows application, load the old ser file and save it in a format like JSON or XML. The Linux application then needs to load the new JSON / XML file instead of the ser.
