- - ### Method Summary

    All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `void` | `deserialize(InputStream aInputStream)` Ingests SynchPoint data from the InputStream.
    `Object` | `get()` Retrieves data to facilitate recovery
    `String` | `serializeToXML()` Serializes internal representation of the SynchPoint to XML
    `void` | `set(Object aSynchPointData)` Sets data from which to recover

- - ### Method Detail

    - #### set

          void set(Object aSynchPointData)
            throws InvalidClassException

      Sets data from which to recover
      Parameters:
        `aSynchPointData` - - arbitrary object containing recovery information
      Throws:
        `InvalidClassException` - if aSynchPointData class is not supported by implementation

    - #### get

          Object get()

      Retrieves data to facilitate recovery
      Returns:
        Object - data containing recovery information

    - #### serializeToXML

          String serializeToXML()

      Serializes internal representation of the SynchPoint to XML
      Returns:
        - serialized SynchPoint as String

    - #### deserialize

          void deserialize(InputStream aInputStream)
                    throws Exception

      Ingests SynchPoint data from the InputStream. InputStream contains xml representation of the SynchPoint previously generated by serializeToXML().
      Parameters:
        `aInputStream` - - xml stream containing SynchPoint data
      Throws:
        `Exception` - - unable to process the input stream
