Transient field is not initialized on deserialization

Reports transient fields that are initialized during normal object construction, but whose class does not have a readObject method.

As transient fields are not serialized they need to be initialized separately in a readObject() method during deserialization.

Any transient fields that are not initialized during normal object construction are considered to use the default initialization and are not reported by this inspection.

Example:

class Person implements Serializable {
  transient String name = "Default"; //warning, can actually be a null after deserialization
  transient String surname; //null is considered the default value and not reported
}
