Can a serialized simple java object be deserialized by C#?

Question

Assuming all fields of a java class are java primitives, if such an object has been serialized, can it be successfully deserialized by C# into an instance of an "equivalent" C# class?

Is the reverse possible - C# to java?

---

I realise there are many language agnostic formats, such as XML that could be used to get the job done. I am more interested in whether using the native serialized data is feasible.

Answer 1

The formats of serialized streams are available. I think you can write a class easily to parse the byte stream and create the required class in C#.

An article that specifies the serialized format: http://www.javaworld.com/community/node/2915

Answer 2

WOX will be helpful to achieve interoperable serialization.
it can serialize/deserialize Java/C# objects into/from standard XML(platform independent)
