Class BeanPropertyWriter

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    BeanProperty, Named
    Direct Known Subclasses:
    UnwrappingBeanPropertyWriter

    public class BeanPropertyWriter
    extends Object
    implements BeanProperty
    Base bean property handler class, which implements common parts of reflection-based functionality for accessing a property value and serializing it.
    • Field Detail

      • _member

        protected final AnnotatedMember _member
        Member (field, method) that represents property and allows access to associated annotations.
        Since:
        1.7
      • _contextAnnotations

        protected final Annotations _contextAnnotations
        Annotations from context (most often, class that declares property, or in case of sub-class serializer, from that sub-class)
      • _declaredType

        protected final JavaType _declaredType
        Type property is declared to have, either in class definition or associated annotations.
      • _accessorMethod

        protected final Method _accessorMethod
        Accessor method used to get property value, for method-accessible properties. Null if and only if _field is null.
      • _field

        protected final Field _field
        Field that contains the property value for field-accessible properties. Null if and only if _accessorMethod is null.
      • _name

        protected final SerializedString _name
        Logical name of the property; will be used as the field name under which value for the property is written.
      • _cfgSerializationType

        protected final JavaType _cfgSerializationType
        Type to use for locating serializer; normally same as return type of the accessor method, but may be overridden by annotations.
      • _serializer

        protected final JsonSerializer<Object> _serializer
        Serializer to use for writing out the value: null if it can not be known statically; non-null if it can.
      • _dynamicSerializers

        protected PropertySerializerMap _dynamicSerializers
        In case serializer is not known statically (i.e. _serializer is null), we will use a lookup structure for storing dynamically resolved mapping from type(s) to serializer(s).
        Since:
        1.7
      • _suppressNulls

        protected final boolean _suppressNulls
        Flag to indicate that null values for this property are not to be written out. That is, if property has value null, no entry will be written
      • _suppressableValue

        protected final Object _suppressableValue
        Value that is considered default value of the property; used for default-value-suppression if enabled.
      • _includeInViews

        protected Class<?>[] _includeInViews
        Alternate set of property writers used when view-based filtering is available for the Bean.
        Since:
        1.4
      • _typeSerializer

        protected TypeSerializer _typeSerializer
        If property being serialized needs type information to be included this is the type serializer to use. Declared type (possibly augmented with annotations) of property is used for determining exact mechanism to use (compared to actual runtime type used for serializing actual state).
      • _nonTrivialBaseType

        protected JavaType _nonTrivialBaseType
        Base type of the property, if the declared type is "non-trivial"; meaning it is either a structured type (collection, map, array), or parametrized. Used to retain type information about contained type, which is mostly necessary if type metadata is to be included.
        Since:
        1.5
    • Method Detail

      • withSerializer

        public BeanPropertyWriter withSerializer​(JsonSerializer<Object> ser)
        Method that will construct and return a new writer that has same properties as this writer, but uses specified serializer instead of currently configured one (if any).
      • unwrappingWriter

        public BeanPropertyWriter unwrappingWriter()
        Method called create an instance that handles details of unwrapping contained value.
        Since:
        1.9
      • setViews

        public void setViews​(Class<?>[] views)
        Method for defining which views to included value of this property in. If left undefined, will always be included; otherwise active view definition will be checked against definition list and value is only included if active view is one of defined views, or its sub-view (as defined by class/sub-class relationship).
      • setNonTrivialBaseType

        public void setNonTrivialBaseType​(JavaType t)
        Method called to define type to consider as "non-trivial" basetype, needed for dynamic serialization resolution for complex (usually container) types
