Scala Case类序列化

Question

I've been trying to binary serialize a composite case class object that kept throwing a weird exception. I don't really understand what is wrong with this example which throws the following exception. I used to get that exception for circular references which is not the case here. Some hints please?

java.lang.ClassCastException: cannot assign instance of scala.collection.immutable.List$SerializationProxy to field com.Table.rows of type scala.collection.immutable.List in instance of com.Table

Here is the code

import java.io._    
import scalax.file.Path

case class Row(name: String)
case class Table(rows: List[Row])
case class Cont(docs: Map[String, Table])

case object TestSeri {
  def main(args: Array[String]) {
    val cc = Cont(docs = List(
      "1" -> Table(rows = List(Row("r1"), Row("r2"))),
      "2" -> Table(rows = List(Row("r301"), Row("r31"), Row("r32")))
    ).toMap)

    val tt = Table(rows = List(Row("r1"), Row("r2")))
    val ttdes = serializeBinDeserialize(tt)
    println(ttdes == tt)

    val ccdes = serializeBinDeserialize(cc)
    println(ccdes == cc)
  }

  def serializeBinDeserialize[T](payload: T): T = {
    val bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream()
    val out = new ObjectOutputStream(bos)
    out.writeObject(payload)

    val bis = new ByteArrayInputStream(bos.toByteArray)
    val in = new ObjectInputStream(bis)
    in.readObject().asInstanceOf[T]
  }
}

Replacing List with Array which is immutable too, fixed the problem. In my original problem I had a Map which I replaced with TreeMap.

I think is likely to be related to the proxy pattern implementation in generic immutable List and Map mentioned here:

https://issues.scala-lang.org/browse/SI-9237 .

Can't believe I wasted a full day on this.
