18.6. Configuring the Marshaller using the RemoteCacheManager

The infinispan.client.hotrod.marshaller allows you to specify a custom Marshaller implementation to serialize and deserialize user objects.
This can be specified using the marshaller configuration element in the RemoteCacheManager, the value of which should be the name of the class implementing the Marshaller interface. The default value for this property is org.infinispan.marshall.jboss.GenericJBossMarshaller.
The following example shows the default value the JBoss Marshaller.
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("infinispan.client.hotrod.marshaller",
	"org.infinispan.marshall.jboss.GenericJBossMarshaller"
RemoteCacheManager remoteCacheManager = new RemoteCacheManager(props);


At the client level, POJOs need to be either Serializable, Externalizable, or primitive types.

Note

The Java Hot Rod client does not support providing Externalizer instances to serialize POJOs. This is only available for Library mode.
