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 serialization feature is enabled or not. Shortcut for:

    getConfig().isEnabled(feature);
  

• 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 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

  Since:

  2.3

• constructType

  public JavaType constructType(Type type)

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

• constructSpecializedType

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

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

• resolveSubType

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

  Lookup method called when code needs to resolve class name from input; usually simple lookup

  Throws:

  JsonMappingException

  Since:

  2.9

• invalidTypeIdException

  protected abstract JsonMappingException invalidTypeIdException(JavaType baseType,
                                            String typeId,
                                            String extraDesc)

  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.

  Throws:

  JsonMappingException

  public ObjectIdResolver objectIdResolverInstance(Annotated annotated,
                                          ObjectIdInfo objectIdInfo)

• converterInstance

  public Converter<Object,Object> converterInstance(Annotated annotated,
                                           Object converterDef)
                                             throws JsonMappingException

  Helper method to use to construct a Converter, given a definition that may be either actual converter instance, or Class for instantiating one.

  Throws:

  JsonMappingException

  Since:

  2.2
