Package com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.jsontype

Package that contains interfaces that define how to implement functionality for dynamically resolving type during deserialization.

See: Description

Interface Summary

Interface	Description
TypeIdResolver	Interface that defines standard API for converting types to type identifiers and vice versa.
TypeResolverBuilder<T extends TypeResolverBuilder<T>>	Interface that defines builders that are configured based on annotations (like JsonTypeInfo or JAXB annotations), and produce type serializers and deserializers used for handling type information embedded in JSON to allow for safe polymorphic type handling.

Class Summary

Class	Description
NamedType	Simple container class for types with optional logical name, used as external identifier
SubtypeResolver	Helper object used for handling registration on resolving of super-types to sub-types.
TypeDeserializer	Interface for deserializing type information from JSON content, to type-safely deserialize data into correct polymorphic instance (when type inclusion has been enabled for type handled).
TypeSerializer	Interface for serializing type information regarding instances of specified base type (super class), so that exact subtype can be properly deserialized later on.

Package com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.jsontype Description

Package that contains interfaces that define how to implement functionality for dynamically resolving type during deserialization. This is needed for complete handling of polymorphic types, where actual type cannot be determined statically (declared type is a supertype of actual polymorphic serialized types).
