Generic Java serialization / deserialization using Kryo

I am trying to serialize and deserialize custom class objects (for example, SomeClasshaving the default constructor no-args) into an array byte[], using the Kryo 2.19default serializer ( FieldSerializer) as well.

Serialization seems to work fine, but I get various exceptions in deserialization, depending on the actual implementation SomeClass.

The code looks something like this:

SomeClass object = getObject(); // Create and populate a new object of SomeClass

Kryo kryo = new Kryo();
FieldSerializer<?> serializer = new FieldSerializer<SomeClass>(kryo, SomeClass.class);
kryo.register(SomeClass.class, serializer);

ByteArrayOutputStream stream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
Output output = new Output(stream);

kryo.writeObject(output, object);

output.close(); // Also calls output.flush()

byte[] buffer = stream.toByteArray(); // Serialization done, get bytes

// Deserialize the serialized object.
object = kryo.readObject(new Input(new ByteArrayInputStream(buffer)), SomeClass.class);

An example of the exceptions I get is:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IncompatibleClassChangeError: Found interface org.objectweb.asm.MethodVisitor, but class was expected

Parameterized types seem to be problematic for deserialization. To test this assumption, a parameterized implementation is presented here SomeClassand getObject():

class SomeClass<T extends Serializable>
{
    private final T[] elements;

    private final int first;
    private final int second;

    private SomeClass()
    {
        this.elements = null;
        this.first  = 0;
        this.second = 0;
    }

    private SomeClass(T[] elements, int first, int second)
    {
        this.elements = elements;
        this.first = first;
        this.second = second;
    }
}

SomeClass<?> getObject()
{
    String[] elements = new String[] {"This is a test", "one"};

    return new SomeClass<String>(elements, 1, 2);
}
