Java Tutorial : Java IO (Java Serialization with Transient keyword) 

Employee.java

import java.io.Serializable;

    private int id;
    private String name;
    /*
     * If we don't want to serialize any data member of a
     * class, you can mark it as transient.
     */
    private transient int age;

    public Employee(int id, String name, int age)
    {
        super();
        this.id = id;
        this.name = name;
        this.age = age;

        return id;

    public static void main(String[] args) throws FileNotFoundException,
            IOException, ClassNotFoundException
    {
        SerializationDemo serializationDemo = new SerializationDemo();
        serializationDemo.writeEmployeeObject();
    }

    private void writeEmployeeObject() throws FileNotFoundException,
            IOException
    {
        FileOutputStream fileOutputStream = null;
        ObjectOutputStream objectOutputStream = null;
        try
        {
            fileOutputStream = new FileOutputStream("employee.txt");
            objectOutputStream = new ObjectOutputStream(fileOutputStream);

            Employee employee = new Employee(101, "Peter", 32);

            System.out.println("Id  = " + employee.getId());
            System.out.println("Name = " + employee.getName());
            System.out.println("Age = " + employee.getAge());

            /*
             * Write the specified object to the
             * ObjectOutputStream.
             */
            objectOutputStream.writeObject(employee);
            System.out
                    .println("Successfully written employee object to the file.\n");
        }
        finally
        {

            if (objectOutputStream != null)
            {
                /*
                 * Closing a ObjectOutputStream will also
                 * close the OutputStream instance to which
                 * the ObjectOutputStream is writing.
                 */
                objectOutputStream.close();

Output

Id  = 101
Name = Peter

Successfully written employee object to the file.
