## Interface PdxUnreadFields

-     public interface PdxUnreadFields

  Marker interface for an object that GemFire creates and returns from `readUnreadFields`. If you call readUnreadFields then you must also call `writeUnreadFields` when that object is reserialized. If you do not call `writeUnreadFields` but you did call `readUnreadFields` the unread fields will not be written.

  Unread fields are those that are not explicitly read with a `PdxReader` readXXX method. This should only happen when a domain class has changed by adding or removing one or more fields. Unread fields will be preserved automatically (unless you turn this feature off using `setPdxIgnoreUnreadFields` or `client setPdxIgnoreUnreadFields`) but to reduce the performance and memory overhead of automatic preservation it is recommended that use `readUnreadFields` if possible.
