Check any of the recognized OO experts - Booch and Yourdon, for
instance. Constructors are used to build objects, and destructors are
used to clean up objects. They have EVERYTHING to do with object
orientation!

And this is true of ALL true OO languages - such as C++, Java and
Smalltalk.

No, a serialized object is NOT necessarily constructed. It may have,
for instance, references to external resources which are no longer
available, such as a database connection. When this is the case, the
object is no longer valid - because the external resource is no longer
available.

One of the basic tenets of OO is that an object is responsible for its
own validity. An object must always be valid (or, if it is not valid
for some reason, not allow operations on it which depend on it being valid).

The __clone() method is a form of a constructor. But wakeup() isn't.

And if you argue that wakeup() is a form of a constructor, then you have
to argue that sleep() is a form of a destructor - in which case it would
be invalid to call the destructor after calling sleep().
