public Class StdDelegatingSerializer

Overrides tools.jackson.databind.ser.std.StdSerializer.acceptJsonFormatVisitor.

Implements tools.jackson.databind.jsonFormatVisitors.JsonFormatVisitable.acceptJsonFormatVisitor.

Doc from tools.jackson.databind.ser.std.StdSerializer.acceptJsonFormatVisitor.

Default implementation specifies no format. This behavior is usually overriden by custom serializers.

Overrides tools.jackson.databind.ValueSerializer.createContextual.

Doc from tools.jackson.databind.ValueSerializer.createContextual.

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.

@Override

Overrides tools.jackson.databind.ValueSerializer.getDelegatee.

Doc from tools.jackson.databind.ValueSerializer.getDelegatee.

Accessor that can be used to determine if this serializer uses another serializer for actual serialization, by delegating calls. If so, will return immediate delegate (which itself may delegate to further serializers); otherwise will return null.

@Override

Overrides tools.jackson.databind.ValueSerializer.isEmpty.

Doc from tools.jackson.databind.ValueSerializer.isEmpty.

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.

@Override

Overrides tools.jackson.databind.ValueSerializer.resolve.

Doc from tools.jackson.databind.ValueSerializer.resolve.

Method called after SerializationContext has registered the serializer, but before it has returned it to the caller. Called object can then resolve its dependencies to other types, including self-references (direct or indirect).

Note that this method does NOT return serializer, since resolution is not allowed to change actual serializer to use.

@Override

Implements abstract tools.jackson.databind.ser.std.StdSerializer.serialize.

Doc from tools.jackson.databind.ValueSerializer.serialize.

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

Annotations

@Override

Overrides tools.jackson.databind.ValueSerializer.serializeWithType.

Doc from tools.jackson.databind.ValueSerializer.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);
