    short s = 56;

    FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream("test.txt");
    ObjectOutputStream oout = new ObjectOutputStream(out);

    // write something in the file
    oout.writeShort(s);
    oout.writeShort(new Short("1"));
    oout.flush();
    oout.close();
    // create an ObjectInputStream for the file we created before
    ObjectInputStream ois = new ObjectInputStream(new FileInputStream(
        "test.txt"));

    // read and print a short
    System.out.println(ois.readShort());

    // read and print a short
    System.out.println(ois.readShort());
    ois.close();
  }
}

The code above generates the following result.
