/**
 * ObjectReader can "deserialize" objects from debuggee.
 *
 * Class Loading:
 *
 * ObjectReader loads classes using the given class loader. If no
 * class loader is supplied, it uses a ProcImageClassLoader, which
 * loads classes from debuggee core or process.

 * Object creation:
 *
 * This class uses no-arg constructor to construct objects. But if
 * there is no no-arg constructor in a given class, then it tries to
 * use other constructors with 'default' values - null for object
 * types, 0, 0.0, false etc. for primitives.  If this process fails to
 * construct an instance (because of null checking by constructor or 0
 * being invalid for an int arg etc.), then null is returned. While
 * constructing complete object graph 'null' is inserted silently on
 * failure and the deserialization continues to construct best-effort
 * object graph.
 *
 * Debug messages:
 *
 * The flag sun.jvm.hotspot.utilities.ObjectReader.DEBUG may be set to
 * non-null to get debug error messages and stack traces.
 *
 * JDK version:
 *
 * JDK classes are loaded by bootstrap class loader and not by the
 * supplied class loader or ProcImageClassLoader. This may create
 * problems if a JDK class evolves. i.e., if SA runs a JDK version
 * different from that of the debuggee, there is a possibility of
 * schema change. It is recommended that the matching JDK version be
 * used to run SA for proper object deserialization.
