Implements com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ser.ContextualSerializer.createContextual.

Doc from com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ser.ContextualSerializer.createContextual.

Method called to see if a different (or differently configured) serializer is needed to serialize values of specified property. 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.

Parameters
serializers:SerializerProvider

Serializer provider to use for accessing config, other serializers

property:BeanProperty

Method or field that represents the property (and is used to access value to serialize). Should be available; but there may be cases where caller cannot provide it and null is passed instead (in which case impls usually pass 'this' serializer as is)

Returns:JsonSerializer<?>

Serializer to use for serializing values of specified property; may be this instance or a new instance.

Implements abstract com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ser.std.StdSerializer.serialize.

Doc from com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JsonSerializer.serialize.

Method that can be called to ask implementation to serialize values of type this serializer handles.

Parameters
value:T

Value to serialize; can not be null.

gen:JsonGenerator

Generator used to output resulting Json content

provider:SerializerProvider

Provider that can be used to get serializers for serializing Objects value contains, if any.

Annotations

public final void serializeWithType(T value, JsonGenerator g, SerializerProvider provider, TypeSerializer typeSer) throws IOException

Overrides com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JsonSerializer.serializeWithType.

Doc from com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JsonSerializer.serializeWithType.

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.
Parameters
value:T

Value to serialize; can not be null.

g:JsonGenerator

Generator used to output resulting Json content

provider:SerializerProvider

Provider that can be used to get serializers for serializing Objects value contains, if any.

typeSer:TypeSerializer

Type serializer to use for including type information
