Deserialize( INPUT input-stream AS Progress.IO.InputStream )
input-stream
The stream from which the class-based object is deserialized.
The following code sample serializes and deserializes myObj:
DEFINE VARIABLE myFileOutStream AS Progress.IO.FileOutputStream.
DEFINE VARIABLE myFileInStream AS Progress.IO.FileInputStream.
DEFINE VARIABLE mySerializer AS Progress.IO.BinarySerializer.
DEFINE VARIABLE myObj AS Acme.MyClass.
myObj = NEW Acme.MyClass().
mySerializer = NEW Progress.IO.BinarySerializer().
If a class member is not present in the input stream, then that member will be assigned the default value for its type.
If the input stream is unknown or cannot be read from, the AVM raises an error.
If the class of the object being deserialized changed between serialization and deserialization in a way that causes the object and its class to no longer match, the AVM raises an error.
The current position in the stream must be at the beginning of the data for the serialized object for the deserialization to complete successfully.
