           Summary: Problems with the reset method in ObjectOutputStream.
           Product: gcc
           Version: 3.2.2
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: java
        AssignedTo: unassigned@gcc.gnu.org
        ReportedBy: daj2@cs.wustl.edu

The research group I am working with is working on compiling some AspectJ based reference 
counting with GCJ.  However we are running into problems with recycling objects and then 
writing them across an ObjectOutputStream.  Specifically, values in recycled objects on 
client-side are inconsistent with the correct values on server-side, where the recycling takes 
place.  Is there a problem with the reset method that causes it to not reread a value from 
memory after reset it called?  We have tracked this error and are certain that the values prior 
to the write out are correct.
