Enum LongSerializationPolicy

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable<LongSerializationPolicy>
    public enum LongSerializationPolicy
extends java.lang.Enum<LongSerializationPolicy>
    Defines the expected format for a long or Long type when it is serialized.
    Since:
    1.3

      Serialize this value using this serialization policy.
      static LongSerializationPolicy valueOf​(java.lang.String name)

      • DEFAULT

        public static final LongSerializationPolicy DEFAULT
        This is the "default" serialization policy that will output a Long object as a JSON number. For example, assume an object has a long field named "f" then the serialized output would be: {"f":123}

        A null value is serialized as JsonNull.

      • STRING

        public static final LongSerializationPolicy STRING
        Serializes a long value as a quoted string. For example, assume an object has a long field named "f" then the serialized output would be: {"f":"123"}

        A null value is serialized as JsonNull.

      • values

        public static LongSerializationPolicy[] values()
        Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows: 
        for (LongSerializationPolicy c : LongSerializationPolicy.values())
    System.out.println(c);
        Returns:
        an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

      • valueOf

        public static LongSerializationPolicy valueOf​(java.lang.String name)
        Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
        Parameters:
        name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
        Returns:
        the enum constant with the specified name
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
        java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null

      • serialize

        public abstract JsonElement serialize​(java.lang.Long value)
        Serialize this value using this serialization policy.
        Parameters:
        value - the long value to be serialized into a JsonElement
        Returns:
        the serialized version of value
