Method Summary

String	addClassTag(Class<? extends Object> clazz, String tag) Define a tag for the Class to serialize
protected void	checkGlobalTag(Property property, Node node, Object object) Remove redundant global tag for a type safe (generic) collection if it is the same as defined by the JavaBean property
protected Set<Property>	getProperties(Class<? extends Object> type)
protected boolean	ignoreAliases(Object data)
protected Node	representJavaBean(Set<Property> properties, Object javaBean) Tag logic: - explicit root tag is set in serializer - if there is a predefined class tag it is used - a global tag with class name is always used as tag.

Method Detail

representJavaBean

protected Node representJavaBean(Set<Property> properties,
                                 Object javaBean)

Tag logic:
- explicit root tag is set in serializer
- if there is a predefined class tag it is used
- a global tag with class name is always used as tag. The JavaBean parent of the specified JavaBean may set another tag (tag:yaml.org,2002:map) when the property class is the same as runtime class

Parameters:

properties - JavaBean getters

javaBean - instance for Node

Returns:

Node to get serialized

checkGlobalTag

protected void checkGlobalTag(Property property,
                              Node node,
                              Object object)

Remove redundant global tag for a type safe (generic) collection if it is the same as defined by the JavaBean property

Parameters:

property - - JavaBean property

node - - representation of the property

object - - instance represented by the node

getProperties

protected Set<Property> getProperties(Class<? extends Object> type)
                               throws IntrospectionException

Throws:

IntrospectionException

ignoreAliases

protected boolean ignoreAliases(Object data)

Specified by:

ignoreAliases in class BaseRepresenter

addClassTag

public String addClassTag(Class<? extends Object> clazz,
                          String tag)

Define a tag for the Class to serialize

Parameters:

clazz - Class which tag is changed

tag - new tag to be used for every instance of the specified Class

Returns:

the previous tag associated with the Class
