Serial Version UID

Applies to ✅ Open Source Edition   ✅ Express Edition   ✅ Professional Edition   ✅ Enterprise Edition

All jOOQ QueryPart types, including the generated ones, are are serializable. It is thus a good practice to generate a serialVersionUID value in all generated classes, for example:

private static final long serialVersionUID = -2074134614;

By default, this value is 1L to prevent compilation warnings and to minimise noisy diffs should you choose to check in generated sources to version control.
