我在Java类中有一个final字段，肯定会被初始化。当我序列化和反序列化相应的对象图时，我得到一个NPE，因为该字段在hashCode()方法中使用但显然还没有回读。我创建了一个最小的测试用例，其中还包含serialize() / deserialize()方法（如果这些方法有问题），但我似乎无法理解（基础）问题是什么或者如何解决它。
public class TestSerializerTest {
private static final org.slf4j.Logger logger = org.slf4j.LoggerFactory.getLogger(TestSerializerTest.class);
private File workDir;
@Before
public void setUp() {
workDir = new File("target/tmp");
}
@After
public void tearDown() {
workDir.delete();
}
private static class ManagingContainer implements Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
private final Set<Contained> containedElements = new HashSet<Contained>();
public Contained getContained(List<String> descriptors) {
Contained contained = new Contained(this, descriptors);
containedElements.add(contained);
return contained;
}
}
private static class Contained implements Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
@SuppressWarnings("unused")
private final ManagingContainer container;
private final List<String> descriptors;
Contained(ManagingContainer container, List<String> descriptors) {
this.container = container;
if (descriptors == null) {
throw new NullPointerException();
}
this.descriptors = new ArrayList<String>(descriptors);
}
@Override
public int hashCode() {
return descriptors.hashCode();
}
@Override
public boolean equals(Object other) {
if (this == other) {
return true;
}
if (other == null || !(other instanceof Contained)) {
return false;
}
return this.descriptors.equals(((Contained) other).descriptors);
}
}
private static class OtherContainer implements Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
private final ArrayList<Contained> containedElements = new ArrayList<Contained>();
public OtherContainer(Contained initialElement) {
this.containedElements.add(initialElement);
}
public void addContained(Contained nextElement) {
containedElements.add(nextElement);
}
}
void serializeObjectToFile(Serializable serializable, File file) {
logger.info("Saving object '{}' to file '{}'.", serializable, file.getAbsolutePath());
ObjectOutputStream stream = null;
try {
if (!file.getParentFile().exists()) {
logger.info("Creating directory '{}'.", file.getParentFile().getAbsolutePath());
file.getParentFile().mkdirs();
}
stream = new ObjectOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(file));
stream.writeObject(serializable);
stream.flush();
} catch (Exception exception) {
throw new RuntimeException(exception);
} finally {
if (stream != null) {
try {
stream.close();
} catch (IOException exc) {
logger.error("Error closing stream.", exc);
}
}
}
}
Object deserializeObjectFromFile(File file) {
ObjectInputStream oiStream = null;
try {
logger.info("Loading object from file '{}'.", file.getAbsolutePath());
oiStream = new ObjectInputStream(new FileInputStream(file));
return oiStream.readObject();
} catch (Exception exc) {
logger.error("Exception loading object from file '{}'. Ignoring file!", file.getAbsolutePath(), exc);
throw new RuntimeException(exc);
} finally {
if (oiStream != null) {
try {
oiStream.close();
} catch (IOException exc) {
logger.error("Error closing stream.", exc);
}
}
}
}
@Test
public void testSerializeDeserialize() {
ManagingContainer container = new ManagingContainer();
OtherContainer serializable = new OtherContainer(container.getContained(new ArrayList<String>()));
serializable.addContained(container.getContained(new ArrayList<String>()));
File file = new File(workDir, "test.ser");
serializeObjectToFile(serializable, file);
OtherContainer result = (OtherContainer) deserializeObjectFromFile(file);
}
}
执行此测试会创建以下NullPointerException：

据我了解序列化，这应该不是问题（另请参阅Does Java Serialization work for cyclic references?和https://softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/151055/what-happens-if-we-serialize-and-deserialize-two-objects-which-references-to-eac）。
目前我不知道如何继续。任何提示都非常感谢！谢谢！

问题似乎是由ManagingContainer和Container之间的循环关系引起的。当反序列化Container时，它反过来反序列化＆＃39;容器引用的ManagingContainer。属性。但是，在反序列化时，它会尝试使用正在反序列化的Container填充HashSet。
如果序列化/反序列化而不是您的ManagingContainer，它应该可以正常工作，因为在调用hashCode（）之前容器将被完全加载。或者，重新考虑对象图以删除循环依赖关系或编写自定义对象读/写方法。
答案 1 :(得分：1)
我遇到了一个复杂的对象图，该图具有使用HashMaps的双向圆形引用。由于在调用hashCode（）时HashMap的键尚未完全加载，所以我还得到了NullPointerException：
private String id;
int hashCode() {
return id.hashCode(); // NPE during deserialization
}
我也通过将hashCode int本身进行缓存和序列化来“解决”（阅读：“避免”）该问题：
private String id;
private int hashCode;
public void setId( String id ) {
this.id = id;
this.hashCode = id.hashCode();
}
public int hashCode() {
return this.hashCode;
}
原语在序列化过程中内联。它们会在任何对象引用（例如上面的id字符串）之前立即加载。因此，即使未加载任何引用的对象，hashCode int仍然可用。
坏消息，这确实意味着，只要提供hashCode的Object都需要更新hashCode。对于具有明确定义的访问/更新的对象（例如不可变的字符串），这非常简单（请参见上面的setId（...））。对于具有复杂交互作用的对象（例如集合），这很难控制，因为它可能取决于对集合内容的更改以及集合中各个对象的hashCode的更改。
好消息，只要内存便宜，那么如果重复调用hashCode（），可能会导致性能略有改善。
