面接の質問: Java のシリアル化とシングルトンについて [終了] 質問する

質問はおそらく「シングルトンパターンクラスでシリアル化とデシリアル化を使用することは可能ですか？」と表現したほうがよいでしょう。Ｃシングルトンパターンを壊さない方法で？

答えは基本的に「はい」です。

import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.ObjectInputStream;
import java.io.ObjectStreamException;
import java.io.Serializable;

public class AppState implements Serializable
{
    private static AppState s_instance = null;

    public static synchronized AppState getInstance() {
        if (s_instance == null) {
            s_instance = new AppState();
        }
        return s_instance;
    }

    private AppState() {
        // initialize
    }

    private void readObject(ObjectInputStream ois) throws IOException, ClassNotFoundException {
        ois.defaultReadObject();
        synchronized (AppState.class) {
            if (s_instance == null) {
                // re-initialize if needed

                s_instance = this; // only if everything succeeds
            }
        }
    }

    // this function must not be called other than by the deserialization runtime
    private Object readResolve() throws ObjectStreamException {
        assert(s_instance != null);
        return s_instance;
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Throwable {
        assert(getInstance() == getInstance());

            java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream();
            java.io.ObjectOutputStream oos = new java.io.ObjectOutputStream(baos);
            oos.writeObject(getInstance());
            oos.close();

            java.io.InputStream is = new java.io.ByteArrayInputStream(baos.toByteArray());
            ObjectInputStream ois = new ObjectInputStream(is);
            AppState s = (AppState)ois.readObject();
            assert(s == getInstance());
    }
}
