Hi Martin,

Thanks for the answer, I have another question. Is there any way to tell Fuel to serialize only the object with its instance variables and that�s it?

I don�t want Fuel to traverse any reference, just the object with its fields.

Thanks,
Roberto

By default, it uses some criteria to prune the traversal. For example, when the traversed object is a class, then it encodes the name of that class. Similar for a method.

We already discussed this issue in this mailing list a while ago with Max.
