Class TypeWrappedSerializer

    • Method Detail

      • serialize

        public void serialize​(java.lang.Object value,
                              JsonGenerator g,
                              SerializerProvider provider)
                       throws java.io.IOException
        Description copied from class: JsonSerializer
        Method that can be called to ask implementation to serialize values of type this serializer handles.
        Specified by:
        serialize in class JsonSerializer<java.lang.Object>
        Parameters:
        value - Value to serialize; can not be null.
        g - Generator used to output resulting Json content
        provider - Provider that can be used to get serializers for serializing Objects value contains, if any.
        Throws:
        java.io.IOException
      • serializeWithType

        public void serializeWithType​(java.lang.Object value,
                                      JsonGenerator g,
                                      SerializerProvider provider,
                                      TypeSerializer typeSer)
                               throws java.io.IOException
        Description copied from class: JsonSerializer
        Method that can be called to ask implementation to serialize values of type this serializer handles, using specified type serializer for embedding necessary type information.

        Default implementation will throw UnsupportedOperationException to indicate that proper type handling needs to be implemented.

        For simple datatypes written as a single scalar value (JSON String, Number, Boolean), implementation would look like:

          // note: method to call depends on whether this type is serialized as JSON scalar, object or Array!
          typeSer.writeTypePrefixForScalar(value, gen);
          serialize(value, gen, provider);
          typeSer.writeTypeSuffixForScalar(value, gen);
        
        and implementations for type serialized as JSON Arrays or Objects would differ slightly, as START-ARRAY/END-ARRAY and START-OBJECT/END-OBJECT pairs need to be properly handled with respect to serializing of contents.
        Overrides:
        serializeWithType in class JsonSerializer<java.lang.Object>
        Parameters:
        value - Value to serialize; can not be null.
        g - Generator used to output resulting Json content
        provider - Provider that can be used to get serializers for serializing Objects value contains, if any.
        typeSer - Type serializer to use for including type information
        Throws:
        java.io.IOException
      • handledType

        public java.lang.Class<java.lang.Object> handledType()
        Description copied from class: JsonSerializer
        Method for accessing type of Objects this serializer can handle. Note that this information is not guaranteed to be exact -- it may be a more generic (super-type) -- but it should not be incorrect (return a non-related type).

        Default implementation will return null, which essentially means same as returning Object.class would; that is, that nothing is known about handled type.

        Overrides:
        handledType in class JsonSerializer<java.lang.Object>
      • createContextual

        public JsonSerializer<?> createContextual​(SerializerProvider provider,
                                                  BeanProperty property)
                                           throws JsonMappingException
        Description copied from interface: ContextualSerializer
        Method called to see if a different (or differently configured) serializer is needed to serialize values of specified property. Note that instance that this method is called on is typically shared one and as a result method should NOT modify this instance but rather construct and return a new instance. This instance should only be returned as-is, in case it is already suitable for use.
        Specified by:
        createContextual in interface ContextualSerializer
        Parameters:
        provider - Serializer provider to use for accessing config, other serializers
        property - Method or field that represents the property (and is used to access value to serialize). Should be available; but there may be cases where caller cannot provide it and null is passed instead (in which case impls usually pass 'this' serializer as is)
        Returns:
        Serializer to use for serializing values of specified property; may be this instance or a new instance.
        Throws:
        JsonMappingException
      • valueSerializer
