objectinputstream

I have some pretty standard code which takes in a serialized object from a stream, which bascially looks like this: Object getObjectFromStream(InputStream is) { ObjectInputStream ois = new ObjectInputStream(is); return ois.readObject(); } I then have a file in my resources folder, so on my development machine, I can either reference it as a File, or as a JarResource: InputStream is = new FileInputStream("/home/.../src/main/resources/serializedObjects/testObject"); InputStream is = this.getClass().getResourceAsStream("/serializedObjects/testObject"); In my head, both should do the exact same

I have downloaded Eclipse and tried to create a sample servlet program but I got following error The type java.io.ObjectInputStream cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from required .class files I have configured build path correctly. I am using Java 8 and Apache Tomcat 7 and libraries for both are referenced correctly. Problem is specifically for Java EE only. Ordinarily Java SE projects are running fine. mzjn Something happened in Java 8 Update 91 that broke existing JSP code. That seems pretty clear. Here is a sample of similar questions and bug reports: Unable to compile JSP
