[Advanced-java] Reading file serialised by VC++

[anand vasudevan]

Hello All,
I am trying to deserialize and read a file which has
been previously serialized using VC++. Is there a way
to read a file in Java serialized by VC++. When i read
using ObjectInputStream, exception is thrown
(InvalidStreamHeader). The file structure of the
serialized file is as below:

PC Records(Array)
{
ObjectRecord
{
Name;(string)
SecurityLevel;(unsigned char)
SecurityGroup;(string)
ScanTime;(unsigned char)
ElementNum;(int)
}
PCDevice;(unsigned char)
m_SerNum[5];(unsigned char)
m_DeviceChanCount; (unsigned char)
m_ModelID; (unsigned char)
m_ChanNum; (unsigned char)
m_LastBlock; (unsigned short)
m_ScanTime; (unsigned char)
m_Owner; (unsigned char)
m_Gain; (unsigned char)
PCPath;(string)
m_PCName;(string)
a; (unsigned char)
b; (unsigned char)
}

could somebody help me deserialize and read this file
using Java. Any help and sample source code is greatly
appreciated.

Regards

Anand
