Currently, no class in the java.awt.geom package is serializable, making it
difficult to serialize user-defined objects
that contain references to java2D objects.

The classes in java.awt.geom are not serializable, even though there
is no ambiguity in the semantics of serializing these types.

Hello. Class java.awt.geom.GeneralPath is final. I need to serialize an
instance of this class. I could do so is GeneralPath weren't final; I would
create a subclass of this class that implements java.io.Serializable.

How do I do it? Thanks.
