/**
 * A decoder which deserializes the received {@link ChannelBuffer}s into Java
 * objects (interoperability version).
 * <p>
 * This decoder is interoperable with the standard Java object
 * streams such as {@link ObjectInputStream} and {@link ObjectOutputStream}.
 * <p>
 * However, this decoder might perform worse than {@link ObjectDecoder} if
 * the serialized object is big and complex.  Also, it does not limit the
 * maximum size of the object, and consequently your application might face
 * the risk of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DoS">DoS attack</a>.
 * Please use {@link ObjectEncoder} and {@link ObjectDecoder} if you are not
 * required to keep the interoperability with the standard object streams.
 *
 * @deprecated This decoder has a known critical bug which fails to decode and
 *             raises a random exception in some circumstances.  Avoid to use
 *             it whenever you can. The only workaround is to replace
 *             {@link CompatibleObjectEncoder}, {@link CompatibleObjectDecoder},
 *             {@link ObjectInputStream}, and {@link ObjectOutputStream} with
 *             {@link ObjectEncoder}, {@link ObjectDecoder},
 *             {@link ObjectEncoderOutputStream}, and
 *             {@link ObjectDecoderInputStream} respectively.  This workaround
 *             requires both a client and a server to be modified.
