.SH SYNOPSIS    
.sp     
.nf     

\fBserialver\fR [ \fIoptions\fR ] [ \fIclassnames\fR ]
.fi     
.sp     
.TP     
\fIoptions\fR
The command-line options\&. See Options\&.
.TP     
\fIclassnames\fR
The classes for which the \f3serialVersionUID\fR is to be returned\&.
.SH DESCRIPTION    
The \f3serialver\fR command returns the \f3serialVersionUID\fR for one or more classes in a form suitable for copying into an evolving class\&. When called with no arguments, the \f3serialver\fR command prints a usage line\&.
.SH OPTIONS    
.TP
-classpath \fIpath-files\fR
.br
Sets the search path for application classes and resources\&. Separate classes and resources with a colon (:)\&.
.TP
-show
.br
Displays a simple user interface\&. Enter the full class name and press either the \fIEnter\fR key or the \fIShow\fR button to display the \f3serialVersionUID\fR\&.
.TP
-J\fIoption\fR
.br
Passes \f3option\fR to the Java Virtual Machine, where option is one of the options described on the reference page for the Java application launcher\&. For example, \f3-J-Xms48m\fR sets the startup memory to 48 MB\&. See java(1)\&.
.SH NOTES    
The \f3serialver\fR command loads and initializes the specified classes in its virtual machine, and by default, it does not set a security manager\&. If the \f3serialver\fR command is to be run with untrusted classes, then a security manager can be set with the following option:
.sp     
.nf     
\f3\-J\-Djava\&.security\&.manager\fP
.fi     
.nf     
\f3\fP
.fi     
.sp     
When necessary, a security policy can be specified with the following option:
.sp     
.nf     
\f3\-J\-Djava\&.security\&.policy=<policy file>\fP
.fi     
.nf     
\f3\fP
