        // Deserialize the object
        javax.swing.JButton button = (javax.swing.JButton) in.readObject();
        in.close();
    
        // Get some byte array data
        byte[] bytes = getBytesFromFile(file);
        // see e36 Reading a File into a Byte Array for the implementation of this method
    
        // Deserialize from a byte array
        in = new ObjectInputStream(new ByteArrayInputStream(bytes));
        button = (javax.swing.JButton) in.readObject();
        in.close();
