Package com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.type
Package that contains concrete implementations of
JavaType
, as
well as the factory (TypeFactory
) for
constructing instances from various input data types
(like Class
, Type
)
and programmatically (for structured types, arrays,
List
s and Map
s).-
Class Summary Class Description ArrayType Array types represent Java arrays, both primitive and object valued.ClassKey Key class, used as an efficient and accurate key for locating per-class values, such asJsonSerializer
s.ClassStack Simple helper class used to keep track of 'call stack' for classes being referenced (as well as unbound variables)CollectionLikeType Type that represents things that act similar toCollection
; but may or may not be instances of that interface.CollectionType Type that represents Java Collection types (Lists, Sets).MapLikeType Type that represents Map-like types; things that consist of key/value pairs but that do not necessarily implementMap
, but that do not have enough introspection functionality to allow for some level of generic handling.MapType Type that represents "true" Java Map types.PlaceholderForType Helper type used when introspecting bindings for already resolved types, needed for specialization.ReferenceType SpecializedSimpleType
for types that are referential types, that is, values that can be dereferenced to another value (or null), of different type.ResolvedRecursiveType Internal placeholder type used for self-references.SimpleType Simple types are defined as anything other than one of recognized container types (arrays, Collections, Maps).TypeBase TypeBindings Helper class used for resolving type parameters for given classTypeFactory Class used for creating concreteJavaType
instances, given various inputs.TypeModifier Class that defines API that can be used to modify details ofJavaType
instances constructed usingTypeFactory
.TypeParser Simple recursive-descent parser for parsing canonicalJavaType
representations and constructing type instances.
