It creates a new object from an existing object of the same type. In C++ this would be known as the copy constructor, for instance. In Java it is the clone() method. Both are considered constructors. Also, when the object is serialized, it no longer is an object. It has state but no behavior - the data are there but not the methods. So when it is deserialized, a new object is created and by definition a constructor must be called. >> And if you argue that wakeup() is a form of a constructor, > > I don't and never did. > >> then you have to argue that sleep() is a form of a destructor - in >> which case it would be invalid to call the destructor after calling >> sleep(). > > Serialization creates a kind of "frozen" copy of an object.

It is no longer an object. The call to the original object's destructor is correct. And, as you mentioned, when it is deserialized, it is no longer the same object - it is a new one, so a constructor must be called. > To sum it up: A new object can be created by either constructing it > (which calls __construct()) or by copying an existing object (via clone > or via serialization) and this happens without calling __construct() on > the copy since the object is already constructed.

As noted above, different languages have different terms for them. But a constructor MUST be called according to OO principles. -- ================== Remove the "x" from my email address Jerry Stuckle JDS Computer Training Corp. jstucklex@attglobal.net ==================
