Abstract
A converter may be used to convert a serializable object to other file formats. A serializable objects database can be used to store these serializable objects. The serializable object database may be accessed by passing a field value, corresponding to a selected field of the serializable object, to the database. The selected field of the serializable object is marked with an index value. The database is queried using the field value to determine whether any record stored in the database includes the field value in a matching field indicated by the index value. If the query determines that the serializable objects database includes at least one record with the field value in the matching field indicated by the index value, then a plurality of field values are returned to populate a plurality of fields of the serializable object.
