public interface QuickSerializable

The serialization interface of OceanStore. To inherit from this interface, in addition to defining a serialize function, a class should also define a deserialization constructor of the following form

     Constructor (InputBuffer buffer) throws QSException {
         ...
     }
 

which is an inverse of the serialization function (loosely speaking). The throws clause is optional.
