For writing objects to a database normally <A HREF="../../../../../com/sleepycat/bdb/bind/serial/SerialFormat.html"><CODE>SerialFormat</CODE></A> or one of the serial binding classes is used.  <A HREF="../../../../../com/sleepycat/bdb/bind/serial/SerialOutput.html"><CODE>SerialOutput</CODE></A> is used when an <A HREF="http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/api/java/io/ObjectOutputStream.html"><CODE>ObjectOutputStream</CODE></A> is needed along
 with compact storage.  A <A HREF="../../../../../com/sleepycat/bdb/bind/serial/ClassCatalog.html"><CODE>ClassCatalog</CODE></A> must be supplied, however, to
 stored shared class descriptions.

 <p>The <A HREF="../../../../../com/sleepycat/bdb/bind/serial/ClassCatalog.html"><CODE>ClassCatalog</CODE></A> is used to store class definitions rather than
 embedding these into the stream.  Instead, a class format identifier is
 embedded into the stream.  This identifier is then used by <A HREF="../../../../../com/sleepycat/bdb/bind/serial/SerialInput.html"><CODE>SerialInput</CODE></A> to load the class format to deserialize the object.</p>
