Method Detail

• getConfig

  public abstract MapperConfig<?> getConfig()

  Accessor to currently active configuration (both per-request configs and per-mapper config).

• getAnnotationIntrospector

  public abstract AnnotationIntrospector getAnnotationIntrospector()

  Convenience method for accessing serialization view in use (if any); equivalent to:

     getConfig().getAnnotationIntrospector();
  

• isEnabled

  public abstract boolean isEnabled(MapperFeature feature)

  Convenience method for checking whether specified Mapper feature is enabled or not. Shortcut for:

    getConfig().isEnabled(feature);
  

• isEnabled

  public abstract boolean isEnabled(DatatypeFeature feature)

  Method for checking whether specified datatype feature is enabled or not.

  Since:

  2.14

• canOverrideAccessModifiers

  public abstract boolean canOverrideAccessModifiers()

  Convenience method for accessing serialization view in use (if any); equivalent to:

     getConfig().canOverrideAccessModifiers();
  

• getActiveView

  public abstract Class<?> getActiveView()

  Accessor for locating currently active view, if any; returns null if no view has been set.

• getLocale

  public abstract Locale getLocale()

  Since:

  2.6

• getTimeZone

  public abstract TimeZone getTimeZone()

  Since:

  2.6

• getDefaultPropertyFormat

  public abstract com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonFormat.Value getDefaultPropertyFormat(Class<?> baseType)

  Since:

  2.7

• getAttribute

  public abstract Object getAttribute(Object key)

  Method for accessing attributes available in this context. Per-call attributes have highest precedence; attributes set via ObjectReader or ObjectWriter have lower precedence.

  Parameters:

  key - Key of the attribute to get

  Returns:

  Value of the attribute, if any; null otherwise

  Since:

  2.3

• setAttribute

  public abstract DatabindContext setAttribute(Object key,
                                               Object value)

  Method for setting per-call value of given attribute. This will override any previously defined value for the attribute within this context.

  Parameters:

  key - Key of the attribute to set

  value - Value to set attribute to

  Returns:

  This context object, to allow chaining

  2.3

• constructType

  public JavaType constructType(Type type)

  Convenience method for constructing JavaType for given JDK type (usually Class)

• constructSpecializedType

  public abstract JavaType constructSpecializedType(JavaType baseType,
                                                    Class<?> subclass)

  Convenience method for constructing subtypes, retaining generic type parameter (if any).

  Note: since 2.11 handling has varied a bit across serialization, deserialization.

• resolveSubType

  public JavaType resolveSubType(JavaType baseType,
                                 String subClassName)
                          throws JsonMappingException

  Lookup method called when code needs to resolve class name from input; usually simple lookup. Note that unlike resolveAndValidateSubType(com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType, java.lang.String, com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.jsontype.PolymorphicTypeValidator) this method DOES NOT validate subtype against configured PolymorphicTypeValidator: usually because such check has already been made.

  Throws:

  JsonMappingException

  Since:

  2.9

• resolveAndValidateSubType

  public JavaType resolveAndValidateSubType(JavaType baseType,
                                            String subClass,
                                            PolymorphicTypeValidator ptv)
                                     throws JsonMappingException

  Lookup method similar to resolveSubType(com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType, java.lang.String) but one that also validates that resulting subtype is valid according to given PolymorphicTypeValidator.

  Throws:

  JsonMappingException

• invalidTypeIdException

  protected abstract JsonMappingException invalidTypeIdException(JavaType baseType,
                                                                 String typeId,

  Helper method for constructing exception to indicate that given type id could not be resolved to a valid subtype of specified base type. Most commonly called during polymorphic deserialization.

  Note that most of the time this method should NOT be called directly: instead, method handleUnknownTypeId() should be called which will call this method if necessary.
