Why does ByteArray writeObject/readObject rotate a graphic?

DirkVandervoort — Thu, 30 Aug 2012 16:56:32 GMT

The offending code (startGrfx is of type com.esri.ags.Graphic):

var ba0:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
ba0.writeObject(startGrfx);
ba0.position = 0;
var endGrfx:Graphic = ba0.readObject();

The resulting graphics transform is shown in the attached jpg (symbology is not preserved as well).[ATTACH=CONFIG]17382[/ATTACH]

Some exceptions traced to the console that I haven't carved into yet:

TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert Object@e42c2b1 to com.esri.ags.symbols.Symbol.
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert Object@e42e731 to mx.managers.IFocusManager.
