write

public static void write(OutputStream out,

id - the object id to serialize; may be null

Throws:

IOException - the stream writing failed

writeWithoutMarker

public static void writeWithoutMarker(OutputStream out,
                                      @NonNull
                                      AnyObjectId id)
                               throws IOException
