public abstract class StaticListSerializerBase<T extends Collection<?>> extends StdSerializer<T>
Intermediate base class for Lists, Collections and Arrays that contain static (non-dynamic) value types.
  • Field Details

    • _unwrapSingle

      protected final Boolean _unwrapSingle
      Setting for specific local override for "unwrap single element arrays": true for enable unwrapping, false for preventing it, `null` for using global configuration.
  • Constructor Details

    • StaticListSerializerBase

      protected StaticListSerializerBase(Class<?> cls)
    • StaticListSerializerBase

      protected StaticListSerializerBase(StaticListSerializerBase<?> src, Boolean unwrapSingle)
  • Method Details

    • _withResolved

      public abstract ValueSerializer<?> _withResolved(BeanProperty prop, Boolean unwrapSingle)
    • createContextual

      public ValueSerializer<?> createContextual(SerializationContext serializers, BeanProperty property)
      Description copied from class: ValueSerializer
      Method called to see if a different (or differently configured) serializer is needed to serialize values of specified property (or, for root values, in which case `null` is passed). Note that instance that this method is called on is typically shared one and as a result method should NOT modify this instance but rather construct and return a new instance. This instance should only be returned as-is, in case it is already suitable for use.

      Note that method is only called once per POJO property, and for the first usage as root value serializer; it is not called for every serialization, as doing that would have significant performance impact; most serializers cache contextual instances for future use.

      Overrides:
      createContextual in class ValueSerializer<T extends Collection<?>>
      Parameters:
      serializers - Context to use for accessing config, other serializers
      property - Property (defined by one or more accessors - field or method - used for accessing logical property value) for which serializer is used to be used; or, `null` for root value (or in cases where caller does not have this information, which is handled as root value case).
      Returns:
      Serializer to use for serializing values of specified property; may be this instance or a new instance.
    • isEmpty

      public boolean isEmpty(SerializationContext provider, T value)
      Description copied from class: ValueSerializer
      Method called to check whether given serializable value is considered "empty" value (for purposes of suppressing serialization of empty values).

      Default implementation will consider only null values to be empty.

      Overrides:
      isEmpty in class ValueSerializer<T extends Collection<?>>
    • acceptJsonFormatVisitor

      public void acceptJsonFormatVisitor(JsonFormatVisitorWrapper visitor, JavaType typeHint)
      Description copied from class: StdSerializer
      Default implementation specifies no format. This behavior is usually overriden by custom serializers.
      Specified by:
      acceptJsonFormatVisitor in interface JsonFormatVisitable
      Overrides:
      acceptJsonFormatVisitor in class StdSerializer<T extends Collection<?>>
      typeHint - Type of element (entity like property) being visited
    • contentSchema

      protected abstract JsonNode contentSchema()
    • acceptContentVisitor

      protected abstract void acceptContentVisitor(JsonArrayFormatVisitor visitor)
    • serializeWithType

      public abstract void serializeWithType(T value, JsonGenerator g, SerializationContext provider, TypeSerializer typeSer) throws JacksonException
      Description copied from class: ValueSerializer
      Method that can be called to ask implementation to serialize values of type this serializer handles, using specified type serializer for embedding necessary type information.

      Default implementation will throw UnsupportedOperationException to indicate that proper type handling needs to be implemented.

      For simple datatypes written as a single scalar value (JSON String, Number, Boolean), implementation would look like:

        // note: method to call depends on whether this type is serialized as JSON scalar, object or Array!
        typeSer.writeTypePrefixForScalar(value, gen);
        serialize(value, gen, provider);
        typeSer.writeTypeSuffixForScalar(value, gen);
      
      and implementations for type serialized as JSON Arrays or Objects would differ slightly, as START-ARRAY/END-ARRAY and START-OBJECT/END-OBJECT pairs need to be properly handled with respect to serializing of contents.
      Overrides:
      serializeWithType in class ValueSerializer<T extends Collection<?>>
      Parameters:
      value - Value to serialize; can not be null.
      g - Generator used to output resulting Json content
      provider - Context that can be used to get serializers for serializing Objects value contains, if any.
      typeSer - Type serializer to use for including type information
      Throws:
      JacksonException
