# Make SerialVersionUID Static Final
# Description
Adds the modifiers static and final to SerialVersionUid long variables when they are absent.
# Benefits
For serializable classes the SerialVersionUid should be written explicitly. If the UID changes, that can lead to errors (for example, an object not being able to be deserialized). To avoid those errors, apply this rule.
