Class ObjectArraySerializer

All Implemented Interfaces:
JsonFormatVisitable

public class ObjectArraySerializer extends ArraySerializerBase<Object[]>
Generic serializer for Object arrays (Object[]).
  • Field Details

    • _staticTyping

      protected final boolean _staticTyping
      Whether we are using static typing (using declared types, ignoring runtime type) or not for elements.
    • _elementType

      protected final JavaType _elementType
      Declared type of element entries
    • _valueTypeSerializer

      protected final TypeSerializer _valueTypeSerializer
      Type serializer to use for values, if any.
    • _elementSerializer

      protected ValueSerializer<Object> _elementSerializer
      Value serializer to use, if it can be statically determined.
  • Constructor Details

  • Method Details

    • _withResolved

      public ValueSerializer<?> _withResolved(BeanProperty prop, Boolean unwrapSingle)
      Specified by:
      _withResolved in class ArraySerializerBase<Object[]>
    • _withValueTypeSerializer

      public StdContainerSerializer<?> _withValueTypeSerializer(TypeSerializer vts)
      Description copied from class: StdContainerSerializer
      Method that needs to be implemented to allow construction of a new serializer object with given TypeSerializer, used when addition type information is to be embedded.
      Specified by:
      _withValueTypeSerializer in class StdContainerSerializer<Object[]>
    • withResolved

      public ObjectArraySerializer withResolved(BeanProperty prop, TypeSerializer vts, ValueSerializer<?> ser, Boolean unwrapSingle)
    • createContextual

      public ValueSerializer<?> createContextual(SerializationContext ctxt, BeanProperty property)
      Description copied from class: ValueSerializer
      Method called to see if a different (or differently configured) serializer is needed to serialize values of specified property (or, for root values, in which case `null` is passed). 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.

      Note that method is only called once per POJO property, and for the first usage as root value serializer; it is not called for every serialization, as doing that would have significant performance impact; most serializers cache contextual instances for future use.

      Overrides:
      createContextual in class ArraySerializerBase<Object[]>
      Parameters:
      ctxt - Context to use for accessing config, other serializers
      property - Property (defined by one or more accessors - field or method - used for accessing logical property value) for which serializer is used to be used; or, `null` for root value (or in cases where caller does not have this information, which is handled as root value case).
      Returns:
      Serializer to use for serializing values of specified property; may be this instance or a new instance.
    • getContentType

      public JavaType getContentType()
      Description copied from class: StdContainerSerializer
      Accessor for finding declared (static) element type for type this serializer is used for.
      Specified by:
      getContentType in class StdContainerSerializer<Object[]>
    • getContentSerializer

      public ValueSerializer<?> getContentSerializer()
      Description copied from class: StdContainerSerializer
      Accessor for serializer used for serializing contents (List and array elements, Map values etc) of the container for which this serializer is used, if it is known statically. Note that for dynamic types this may return null; if so, caller has to instead use StdContainerSerializer.getContentType() and SerializationContext.findContentValueSerializer(tools.jackson.databind.JavaType, tools.jackson.databind.BeanProperty).
      Specified by:
      getContentSerializer in class StdContainerSerializer<Object[]>
    • isEmpty

      public boolean isEmpty(SerializationContext prov, Object[] value)
      Description copied from class: ValueSerializer
      Method called to check whether given serializable value is considered "empty" value (for purposes of suppressing serialization of empty values).

      Default implementation will consider only null values to be empty.

      Specified by:
      isEmpty in class StdContainerSerializer<Object[]>
    • hasSingleElement

      public boolean hasSingleElement(Object[] value)
      Description copied from class: StdContainerSerializer
      Method called to determine if the given value (of type handled by this serializer) contains exactly one element.

      Note: although it might seem sensible to instead define something like "getElementCount()" method, this would not work well for containers that do not keep track of size (like linked lists may not).

      Note, too, that this method is only called by serializer itself; and specifically is not used for non-array/collection types like Map or Map.Entry instances.

      Specified by:
      hasSingleElement in class StdContainerSerializer<Object[]>
    • serialize

      public final void serialize(Object[] value, tools.jackson.core.JsonGenerator g, SerializationContext ctxt) throws tools.jackson.core.JacksonException
      Description copied from class: ValueSerializer
      Method that can be called to ask implementation to serialize values of type this serializer handles.
      Specified by:
      serialize in class StdSerializer<Object[]>
      Parameters:
      value - Value to serialize; can not be null.
      g - Generator used to output resulting Json content
      ctxt - Context that can be used to get serializers for serializing Objects value contains, if any.
      Throws:
      tools.jackson.core.JacksonException
    • serializeContents

      public void serializeContents(Object[] value, tools.jackson.core.JsonGenerator g, SerializationContext ctxt) throws tools.jackson.core.JacksonException
      Specified by:
      serializeContents in class ArraySerializerBase<Object[]>
      Throws:
      tools.jackson.core.JacksonException
    • serializeContentsUsing

      public void serializeContentsUsing(Object[] value, tools.jackson.core.JsonGenerator g, SerializationContext provider, ValueSerializer<Object> ser) throws tools.jackson.core.JacksonException
      Throws:
      tools.jackson.core.JacksonException
    • serializeTypedContents

      public void serializeTypedContents(Object[] value, tools.jackson.core.JsonGenerator g, SerializationContext ctxt) throws tools.jackson.core.JacksonException
      Throws:
      tools.jackson.core.JacksonException
    • acceptJsonFormatVisitor

      public void acceptJsonFormatVisitor(JsonFormatVisitorWrapper visitor, JavaType typeHint)
      Description copied from class: StdSerializer
      Default implementation specifies no format. This behavior is usually overriden by custom serializers.
      Specified by:
      acceptJsonFormatVisitor in interface JsonFormatVisitable
      Overrides:
      acceptJsonFormatVisitor in class StdSerializer<Object[]>
      typeHint - Type of element (entity like property) being visited
