Non-serializable class with 'readObject()' or 'writeObject()'

Reports non-Serializable classes that define readObject() or writeObject() methods. Such methods in that context normally indicate an error.

Example:

  public class SampleClass {
    private void readObject(ObjectInputStream str) {}
    private void writeObject(ObjectOutputStream str) {}
  }
