public StringBuilder
getErasedSignature(StringBuilder
StringBuilder to append signature to
sb)

Implements abstract com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.type.TypeBase.getErasedSignature.

Method for accessing signature without generic type information, in form compatible with all versions of JVM, and specifically used for type descriptions when generating byte code.

public StringBuilder
getGenericSignature(StringBuilder
StringBuilder to append signature to
sb)

Implements abstract com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.type.TypeBase.getGenericSignature.

public boolean
isContainerType()

Implements abstract com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType.isContainerType.

public JavaType
refine(Class<?> rawType, TypeBindings bindings, JavaType superClass, JavaType[] superInterfaces)

Implements abstract com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType.refine.

Mutant factory method that will try to create and return a sub-type instance for known parameterized types; for other types will return `null` to indicate that no just refinement makes necessary sense, without trying to detect special status through implemented interfaces.

public String
toString()

Implements abstract com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType.toString.

Returns a string representation of the object.

public JavaType
withContentType(JavaType contentType)

Implements abstract com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType.withContentType.

Mutant factory method that may be called on structured types that have a so-called content type (element of arrays, value type of Maps, referenced type of referential types), and will construct a new instance that is identical to this instance, except that it has specified content type, instead of current one.

public JavaType
withContentTypeHandler(Object
Handler to pass to new instance created
h)

Implements abstract com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType.withContentTypeHandler.

Internal method that should not be used by any code outside of jackson-databind: only used internally by databind.

public JavaType
withContentValueHandler(Object
Handler to pass to new instance created
h)

Implements abstract com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType.withContentValueHandler.

Internal method that should not be used by any code outside of jackson-databind: only used internally by databind.

public JavaType
withStaticTyping()

Implements abstract com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType.withStaticTyping.

Method that can be called to get a type instance that indicates that values of the type should be handled using "static typing" for purposes of serialization (as opposed to "dynamic" aka runtime typing): meaning that no runtime information is needed for determining serializers to use.

public JavaType
withTypeHandler(Object
Handler to pass to new instance created
h)

Implements abstract com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType.withTypeHandler.

Internal method that should not be used by any code outside of jackson-databind: only used internally by databind.

public JavaType
withValueHandler(Object
Handler to pass to new instance created
h)

Implements abstract com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType.withValueHandler.

Internal method that should not be used by any code outside of jackson-databind: only used internally by databind.

public StringBuilder getErasedSignature(StringBuilder sb)

Implements abstract com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.type.TypeBase.getErasedSignature.

Doc from com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType.getErasedSignature.

Method for accessing signature without generic type information, in form compatible with all versions of JVM, and specifically used for type descriptions when generating byte code.

Parameters
sb:StringBuilder

StringBuilder to append signature to

Returns:StringBuilder

StringBuilder that was passed in; returned to allow call chaining

Parameters
sb:StringBuilder

Returns:StringBuilder

Doc from com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType.getGenericSignature.

public boolean isContainerType()

Implements abstract com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType.isContainerType.

Returns:boolean

Doc from com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType.isContainerType.

True if type represented is a container type; this includes array, Map and Collection types.

public JavaType refine(Class<?> rawType, TypeBindings bindings, JavaType superClass, JavaType[] superInterfaces)

Implements abstract com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType.refine.

Doc from com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType.refine.

Mutant factory method that will try to create and return a sub-type instance for known parameterized types; for other types will return `null` to indicate that no just refinement makes necessary sense, without trying to detect special status through implemented interfaces.

public String toString()

Implements abstract com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType.toString.

Doc from java.lang.Object.toString.

Returns a string representation of the object. Satisfying this method's contract implies a non-null result must be returned.

Returns:String

a string representation of the object

Annotations
@Override
withContentTypeback to summary
public JavaType withContentType(JavaType contentType)

Implements abstract com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType.withContentType.

Doc from com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType.withContentType.

Mutant factory method that may be called on structured types that have a so-called content type (element of arrays, value type of Maps, referenced type of referential types), and will construct a new instance that is identical to this instance, except that it has specified content type, instead of current one. If content type is already set to given type, this is returned. If type does not have a content type (which is the case with SimpleType), IllegalArgumentException will be thrown.

Returns:JavaType

Newly created type instance

@Override
withContentTypeHandlerback to summary
public JavaType withContentTypeHandler(Object h)

Implements abstract com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType.withContentTypeHandler.

Doc from com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType.withContentTypeHandler.

Internal method that should not be used by any code outside of jackson-databind: only used internally by databind. May be removed from Jackson 3.0.

This mutant factory method will construct a new instance that is identical to this instance, except that it will have specified content type (element type for arrays, value type for Maps and so forth) handler assigned.

Parameters
h:Object

Handler to pass to new instance created

Returns:JavaType

Newly created type instance with same type information, specified handler

public JavaType withContentValueHandler(Object h)

Doc from com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType.withContentValueHandler.

Internal method that should not be used by any code outside of jackson-databind: only used internally by databind. May be removed from Jackson 3.0.

Mutant factory method that will construct a new instance that is identical to this instance, except that it will have specified content value handler assigned.

Parameters
h:Object

public JavaType withStaticTyping()

Implements abstract com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType.withStaticTyping.

Doc from com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType.withStaticTyping.

Method that can be called to get a type instance that indicates that values of the type should be handled using "static typing" for purposes of serialization (as opposed to "dynamic" aka runtime typing): meaning that no runtime information is needed for determining serializers to use. The main use case is to allow forcing of specific root value serialization type, and specifically in resolving serializers for contained types (element types for arrays, Collections and Maps).
