Java method for saving the current state of the program

Can I save the current state of the Java program and reload it? The plan is rather complicated I just need to be able to save the current state to a file and reload it Can you ask me to refer to a Java library or a place to read more about it

Solution

There is no real way to "store the state of the entire JVM"

However, you can encapsulate the relevant state of the application in one or more objects and then serialize them This sounds more complicated than it is, because it is likely that the state of the application has been (mostly) encapsulated in some object

This serialization tutorial provides more information. For details, see this page
