Constructor Detail

• VirtualBeanPropertyWriter

  protected VirtualBeanPropertyWriter(BeanPropertyDefinition propDef,
                           Annotations contextAnnotations,
                           JavaType declaredType)

  Constructor used by most sub-types.

• VirtualBeanPropertyWriter

  protected VirtualBeanPropertyWriter()

  Constructor that may be used by sub-classes for constructing a "blue-print" instance; one that will only become (or create) actual usable instance when its withConfig(com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.cfg.MapperConfig<?>, com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.introspect.AnnotatedClass, com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.introspect.BeanPropertyDefinition, com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType) method is called.

• VirtualBeanPropertyWriter

  protected VirtualBeanPropertyWriter(BeanPropertyDefinition propDef,
                           Annotations contextAnnotations,
                           JavaType declaredType,
                           JsonSerializer<?> ser,
                           TypeSerializer typeSer,
                           JavaType serType,
                           JsonInclude.Include inclusion)

  Pass-through constructor that may be used by sub-classes that want full control over implementation.

• VirtualBeanPropertyWriter

  protected VirtualBeanPropertyWriter(VirtualBeanPropertyWriter base)

• VirtualBeanPropertyWriter

  protected VirtualBeanPropertyWriter(VirtualBeanPropertyWriter base,
                           PropertyName name)

Method Detail

• _suppressNulls

  protected static boolean _suppressNulls(JsonInclude.Include inclusion)

• _suppressableValue

  protected static Object _suppressableValue(JsonInclude.Include inclusion)

• isVirtual

  public boolean isVirtual()

  Description copied from class: BeanPropertyWriter
  Note: will be defined in BeanProperty; as of now is not yet.

  TODO: move to BeanProperty in near future, once all standard implementations define it.

  Overrides:

  isVirtual in class BeanPropertyWriter

• getPropertyType

  public Class<?> getPropertyType()

  Overrides:

  getPropertyType in class BeanPropertyWriter

• getGenericPropertyType

  public Type getGenericPropertyType()

  Description copied from class: BeanPropertyWriter
  Get the generic property type of this property writer.

  Overrides:

  getGenericPropertyType in class BeanPropertyWriter

  Returns:

  The property type, or null if not found.

• value

  protected abstract Object value(Object bean,
             JsonGenerator jgen,
             SerializerProvider prov)
                           throws Exception

  Method called to figure out the value to serialize. For simple sub-types (such as AttributePropertyWriter) this may be one of few methods to define, although more advanced implementations may choose to not even use this method (by overriding serializeAsField(java.lang.Object, com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonGenerator, com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.SerializerProvider)) and define a bogus implementation.

  Throws:

  Exception

• withConfig

  public abstract VirtualBeanPropertyWriter withConfig(MapperConfig<?> config,
                                     AnnotatedClass declaringClass,
                                     BeanPropertyDefinition propDef,
                                     JavaType type)

  Contextualization method called on a newly constructed virtual bean property. Usually a new intance needs to be created due to finality of some of configuration members; otherwise while recommended, creating a new instance is not strictly-speaking mandatory because calls are made in thread-safe manner, as part of initialization before use.

  Parameters:

  config - Currenct configuration; guaranteed to be SerializationConfig (just not typed since caller does not have dependency to serialization-specific types)

  declaringClass - Class that contains this property writer

  propDef - Nominal property definition to use

  type - Declared type for the property

• serializeAsField

  public void serializeAsField(Object bean,
                      JsonGenerator gen,
                      SerializerProvider prov)
                        throws Exception

  Description copied from class: BeanPropertyWriter
  Method called to access property that this bean stands for, from within given bean, and to serialize it as a JSON Object field using appropriate serializer.

  Overrides:

  serializeAsField in class BeanPropertyWriter

  Throws:

  Exception

• serializeAsElement

  public void serializeAsElement(Object bean,
                        JsonGenerator gen,
                        SerializerProvider prov)
                          throws Exception

  Description copied from class: BeanPropertyWriter
  Alternative to BeanPropertyWriter.serializeAsField(java.lang.Object, com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonGenerator, com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.SerializerProvider) that is used when a POJO is serialized as JSON Array; the difference is that no field names are written.

  Overrides:

  serializeAsElement in class BeanPropertyWriter

  Throws:

  Exception
