Warning: The serializable class does not declare a static final serialVersionUID field of type long

```
private static final INamedTab DWS_STATUS_PAGE = new AbstractNamedTab(
        "dws_en_US",
        StatusCategories.SYSTEMS,
        "dws_en_US.status.header") {

```

Does anyone perhaps know why I am getting this warning, just new to module development and have gone through the gateway webpage example. A few things are not working correct yet.

Thanks

You can ignore that warning, it’s something IDEs will warn about when a class implements `java.lang.Serializable` but it’s unlikely to be the source of whatever issues you’re facing.

Thanks Kevin, that is good to know.
