Class ExternalTypeHandler

java.lang.Object

com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.deser.impl.ExternalTypeHandler

public class ExternalTypeHandler
extends Object

Helper class that is used to flatten JSON structure when using "external type id" (see JsonTypeInfo.As.EXTERNAL_PROPERTY). This is needed to store temporary state and buffer tokens, as the structure is rearranged a bit so that actual type deserializer can resolve type and finalize deserialization.

ExternalTypeHandler

protected ExternalTypeHandler(JavaType beanType,
                              com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.deser.impl.ExternalTypeHandler.ExtTypedProperty[] properties,
                              Map<String,Object> nameToPropertyIndex,

Since:

start

public ExternalTypeHandler start()

Method called to start collection process by creating non-blueprint instances.

handleTypePropertyValue

public boolean handleTypePropertyValue(JsonParser p,
                                       DeserializationContext ctxt,
                                       String propName,
                                       Object bean)
                                throws IOException

Method called to see if given property/value pair is an external type id; and if so handle it. This is only to be called in case containing POJO has similarly named property as the external type id AND value is of scalar type: otherwise handlePropertyValue(com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonParser, com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.DeserializationContext, java.lang.String, java.lang.Object) should be called instead.

Throws:

IOException

handlePropertyValue

public boolean handlePropertyValue(JsonParser p,
                                   DeserializationContext ctxt,
                                   String propName,
                                   Object bean)
                            throws IOException

Method called to ask handler to handle value of given property, at point where parser points to the first token of the value. Handling can mean either resolving type id it contains (if it matches type property name), or by buffering the value for further use.

Returns:

True, if the given property was properly handled

Throws:

IOException

complete

public Object complete(JsonParser p,
                       DeserializationContext ctxt,
                       Object bean)
                throws IOException

Method called after JSON Object closes, and has to ensure that all external type ids have been handled.

Throws:

IOException

complete

public Object complete(JsonParser p,
                       DeserializationContext ctxt,
                       PropertyValueBuffer buffer,
                       PropertyBasedCreator creator)
                throws IOException

Variant called when creation of the POJO involves buffering of creator properties as well as property-based creator.

Throws:

IOException

_deserialize

protected final Object _deserialize(JsonParser p,
                                    DeserializationContext ctxt,
                                    int index,
                                    String typeId)
                             throws IOException

Throws:

IOException

_deserializeAndSet

protected final void _deserializeAndSet(JsonParser p,
                                        DeserializationContext ctxt,
                                        Object bean,
                                        int index,
                                        String typeId)
                                 throws IOException
