java.io.NotSerializableException with serializable data class in Kotlin (kotlinx.serialization)-CodePudding

I'm facing java.io.NotSerializableException when trying to writeObject and object of a data class into an ObjectOutputStream. Following is the main activity function of my project :

class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
        debug()
    }
    fun debug() {
        val oos = ObjectOutputStream(ByteArrayOutputStream())
        val obj = BaseElement("HELLO WORLD")
        try{
            oos.writeObject(obj)
        }
        catch(e : Exception) {
            Log.d("mydebug", e.stackTraceToString())
        }
    }
}

The BaseElement class can be found here :

import kotlinx.serialization.Serializable

@Serializable
data class BaseElement(var sentence : String)

The stacktracke is as following :

java.io.NotSerializableException: com.example.myproject.model.BaseElement

Someone please help me understand the solution to this issue.

CodePudding user response：

Implement the serializable interface

import kotlinx.serialization.Serializable


data class BaseElement(var sentence : String) : Serializable
