error in reading objects from file

[sakshi]

Below is a short code to explain the problem i am facing
i have been working on the same for past one week i am facing exceptions while reading a file containing more than one objects

import java.io.BufferedInputStream;
import java.io.BufferedOutputStream;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.ObjectInputStream;
import java.io.ObjectOutputStream;
import java.io.Serializable;
import java.util.logging.Level;

public class Storingobject implements Serializable{
    int x,y;
    
    
    public void addObject()
    {
        //Storingobject temp;
        ObjectOutputStream objOut=null;
        try {
            objOut = new ObjectOutputStream(new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream("temp.dat")));//if i pass true as parameter in FileOutputStream it gives Stream Corrupted exception
        } catch (IOException ex) {
            Logger.getLogger(Storingobject.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
        }
        try {
            // while((temp=objOut.writeObject(o))!=null)
            objOut.writeObject(this);
            System.out.println("Saved..");
            objOut.close();
        } catch (IOException ex) {
            Logger.getLogger(Storingobject.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
        }
           
        
    }
    
    public void readobject()
    {
        int i=1;
        Storingobject temp;
        ObjectInputStream objIn=null;
        try {
            objIn = new ObjectInputStream(new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream("temp.dat")));
        } catch (IOException ex) {
            Logger.getLogger(Storingobject.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
        }
        try {
            while ((temp = (Storingobject) objIn.readObject()) != null) {
                System.out.println("VAlues of object i++ :");
                System.out.println("X: "+temp.x+"Y: "+temp.y);
            }
        } catch (IOException ex) {
            Logger.getLogger(Storingobject.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
        } catch (ClassNotFoundException ex) {
            Logger.getLogger(Storingobject.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
        }
    
        
        
    }
 
    
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        Storingobject o1=new Storingobject();
        o1.x=10;o1.y=15;
        o1.addObject();
        o1.readobject();
        
    }
}

please i would be grateful if u could reply as early as possible

i modified your main method:

public static void main(String args[]) {
        StoringObject o1 = new StoringObject();
        o1.x = 10;
        o1.y = 15;
        o1.addObject();
        o1.readobject();
        
        StoringObject o2 = new StoringObject();
        o2.x = 20;
        o2.y = 25;
        o2.addObject();
        o2.readobject();
    }

there are two objects, but i found no error.

StreamCorruptedException? odd, I would have though the constructors would be safe from that, but apparently not. Rather unlikely that it has anything to do with the filename, but try just in case the .dat extension is causing problems for the constructor with a boolean.

Try a static variable to track number of objects written. i.e

private static int numObjs=0;
public void addObject(){
     StoredObject[] orig = new StoredObject[numObjs];
     //read objects and store in an array
     try {
            objIn = new ObjectInputStream(new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream("temp.dat")));
        } catch (IOException ex) {
            Logger.getLogger(Storingobject.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
        }
     if(objIn!=null){
          for(int i=0;i<numObjs;++i){
               orig[i]=(StoredObject) objIn.readObject();
               //check if object read is null and do error handling to solve problem for later writes
               if(orig[i]==null){
                    numObjs=i - 1;
               }
          }
     }
     //write objects to file (iterate through the array using another for loop)
     //then write the new object
     ++numObjs;
}

Code is untested and may have errors
