Why does Java complain about "No Valid Constructor" even with a default constructor?

public class ExternalizableClass implements Externalizable
{
  public static ExternalizableClass CACHE = new ExternalizableClass(-1);

  int id;

  public ExternalizableClass()
  {
    id = (int)(Math.random() * 1000);
  }

  public ExternalizableClass(int i)
  {
    id = i;
  }


  @Override
  public void writeExternal(ObjectOutput out) throws IOException
  {
    out.writeInt(id);
  }

  @Override
  public void readExternal(ObjectInput in) throws IOException, ClassNotFoundException
  {
    //id = in.readInt();
    id = in.readInt();
  }


  public Object writeReplace() throws ObjectStreamException
  {
    return new Write(0);
  }

  private class Write extends ExternalizableClass
  {
    int value;

    public Write()
    {
    }

    public Write(int i)
    {
      value = i;
    }

    public Object readResolve() throws ObjectStreamException
    {
      return ExternalizableClass.CACHE;
    }


  }

  @Override
  public String toString()
  {
    return "id: " + id;
  }

  public static void main(String[] argv)
  {
    try
    {
      ExternalizableClass ex = ExternalizableClass.CACHE;

      System.out.println(ex);

      ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream(new FileOutputStream("temp.txt"));
      oos.writeObject(ex);

      oos.close();
    }
    catch (Exception e)
    {
      e.printStackTrace();
    }

    ExternalizableClass ex;
    try
    {
      ObjectInputStream ois = new ObjectInputStream(new FileInputStream("temp.txt"));
      ex = (ExternalizableClass) ois.readObject();

      System.out.println(ex);

      ois.close();
    }
    catch (Exception e)
    {
      e.printStackTrace();
    }

  }
}

      

        
        
        
      

    

Both classes ExternalizableClass

and ExternalizableClass.Write

have default (non-arg) constructors. But when deserializing it, Java complains:

java.io.InvalidClassException: SeralizableTest.ExternalizableClass$Write; no valid constructor

Can anyone please explain what the problem is?
