Coverity: Incorrect definition of RawKey as a parent of Serializable classes

XMLWordPrintable

      There are some Serializable classes, which extends from RawKey, which is not Serializable.

      • RawRSAPrivateKey
      • RawDHPrivateKey
      • RawPBEKey
      • RawECPrivateKey
      • RawDSAPrivateKey

      Either mark RawKey as Serializable as well or if this is not desired, provide no-args constructor in RawKey class, as javadoc describes:

      During deserialization, the fields of non-serializable classes will be initialized using the public or protected no-arg constructor of the class. A no-arg constructor must be accessible to the subclass that is serializable. The fields of serializable subclasses will be restored from the stream. [1]
