Class Readers

java.lang.Object

com.cedarsoftware.util.io.Readers

public class Readers
extends Object

All custom readers for json-io subclass this class. Special readers are not needed for handling user-defined classes. However, special readers are built/supplied by json-io for many of the primitive types and other JDK classes simply to allow for a more concise form.

Method Detail

bigIntegerFrom

public static BigInteger bigIntegerFrom(Object value)

Parameters:

value - to be converted to BigInteger. Can be a null which will return null. Can be BigInteger in which case it will be returned as-is. Can also be String, BigDecimal, Boolean (which will be returned as BigInteger.ZERO or .ONE), byte, short, int, long, float, or double. If an unknown type is passed in, an exception will be thrown.

Returns:

a BigInteger from the given input. A best attempt will be made to support as many input types as possible. For example, if the input is a Boolean, a BigInteger of 1 or 0 will be returned. If the input is a String "", a null will be returned. If the input is a Double, Float, or BigDecimal, a BigInteger will be returned that retains the integer portion (fractional part is dropped). The input can be a Byte, Short, Integer, or Long.
