Method for accessing content type of this type, if type has such a thing: simple types do not, structured types do (like arrays, Collections and Maps)java.lang.Object
getContentTypeHandler()
Internal accessor that should not be used by any code outside of jackson-databind: only used internally by databind.java.lang.Object

Method for accessing signature without generic type information, in form compatible with all versions of JVM, and specifically used for type descriptions when generating byte code.java.lang.StringBuilder

boolean
hasGenericTypes()
Method that can be used to find out if the type directly declares generic parameters (for its direct super-class and/or super-interfaces).boolean
hasHandlers()
Helper method that checks whether this type, or its (optional) key or content type hasJavaType.getValueHandler()
orJavaType.getTypeHandler()
; that is, are there any non-standard handlers associated with this type object.boolean

refine(java.lang.Class<?> contentClass, TypeBindings bindings, JavaType superClass, JavaType[] superInterfaces)
Mutant factory method that will try to create and return a sub-type instance for known parameterized types; for other types will return `null` to indicate that no just refinement makes necessary sense, without trying to detect special status through implemented interfaces.java.lang.String
toString()
JavaType
withContentType(JavaType contentType)
Mutant factory method that may be called on structured types that have a so-called content type (element of arrays, value type of Maps, referenced type of referential types), and will construct a new instance that is identical to this instance, except that it has specified content type, instead of current one.ArrayType
withContentTypeHandler(java.lang.Object h)
Internal method that should not be used by any code outside of jackson-databind: only used internally by databind.ArrayType
withContentValueHandler(java.lang.Object h)
Internal method that should not be used by any code outside of jackson-databind: only used internally by databind.ArrayType
withStaticTyping()
Method that can be called to get a type instance that indicates that values of the type should be handled using "static typing" for purposes of serialization (as opposed to "dynamic" aka runtime typing): meaning that no runtime information is needed for determining serializers to use.ArrayType
withTypeHandler(java.lang.Object h)
Internal method that should not be used by any code outside of jackson-databind: only used internally by databind.ArrayType

Internal method that should not be used by any code outside of jackson-databind: only used internally by databind.-

withContentType
public JavaType withContentType(JavaType contentType)
Description copied from class:JavaType
Mutant factory method that may be called on structured types that have a so-called content type (element of arrays, value type of Maps, referenced type of referential types), and will construct a new instance that is identical to this instance, except that it has specified content type, instead of current one. If content type is already set to given type,this
is returned. If type does not have a content type (which is the case withSimpleType
),IllegalArgumentException
will be thrown.- Specified by:
withContentType
in classJavaType
- Returns:
- Newly created type instance
-
withTypeHandler
public ArrayType withTypeHandler(java.lang.Object h)
Description copied from class:JavaType
Internal method that should not be used by any code outside of jackson-databind: only used internally by databind. May be removed from Jackson 3.0.This mutant factory method will construct a new instance that is identical to this instance, except that it will have specified type handler assigned.
- Specified by:
withTypeHandler
in classJavaType
- Parameters:
h
- Handler to pass to new instance created- Returns:
- Newly created type instance with same type information, specified handler
-
withContentTypeHandler
public ArrayType withContentTypeHandler(java.lang.Object h)
Description copied from class:JavaType
Internal method that should not be used by any code outside of jackson-databind: only used internally by databind. May be removed from Jackson 3.0.This mutant factory method will construct a new instance that is identical to this instance, except that it will have specified content type (element type for arrays, value type for Maps and so forth) handler assigned.
- Specified by:
withContentTypeHandler
in classJavaType
- Parameters:
h
- Handler to pass to new instance created- Returns:
- Newly created type instance with same type information, specified handler
-
withValueHandler
public ArrayType withValueHandler(java.lang.Object h)
Description copied from class:JavaType
Internal method that should not be used by any code outside of jackson-databind: only used internally by databind. May be removed from Jackson 3.0.This mutant factory method will construct a new instance that is identical to this instance, except that it will have specified value handler assigned.
- Specified by:
withValueHandler
in classJavaType
- Parameters:
h
- Handler to pass to new instance created- Returns:
- Newly created type instance with same type information, specified handler
-
withContentValueHandler
public ArrayType withContentValueHandler(java.lang.Object h)
Description copied from class:JavaType
Internal method that should not be used by any code outside of jackson-databind: only used internally by databind. May be removed from Jackson 3.0.Mutant factory method that will construct a new instance that is identical to this instance, except that it will have specified content value handler assigned.
- Specified by:
withContentValueHandler

- Parameters:
h
- Handler to pass to new instance created- Returns:
- Newly created type instance with same type information, specified handler
-
withStaticTyping
public ArrayType withStaticTyping()
Description copied from class:JavaType
Method that can be called to get a type instance that indicates that values of the type should be handled using "static typing" for purposes of serialization (as opposed to "dynamic" aka runtime typing): meaning that no runtime information is needed for determining serializers to use. The main use case is to allow forcing of specific root value serialization type, and specifically in resolving serializers for contained types (element types for arrays, Collections and Maps).- Specified by:
withStaticTyping
