Package com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.deser.std

Class TokenBufferDeserializer

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    NullValueProvider, ValueInstantiator.Gettable, java.io.Serializable
    public class TokenBufferDeserializer
extends StdScalarDeserializer<TokenBuffer>
    We also want to directly support deserialization of TokenBuffer.

    Note that we use scalar deserializer base just because we claim to be of scalar for type information inclusion purposes; actual underlying content can be of any (Object, Array, scalar) type.

    Since 2.3, another important thing is that possible native ids (type id, object id) should be properly copied even when converting with TokenBuffer. Such ids are supported if (and only if!) source JsonParser supports them.

      • logicalType

        public LogicalType logicalType()
        Description copied from class: JsonDeserializer
        Method for accessing logical type of values this deserializer produces. Typically used for further configuring handling of values, for example, to find which coercions are legal.
        Overrides:
        logicalType in class StdScalarDeserializer<TokenBuffer>
        Returns:
        Logical type of values this deserializer produces, if known; null if not

      • deserialize

        public TokenBuffer deserialize​(JsonParser p,
                               DeserializationContext ctxt)
                        throws java.io.IOException
        Description copied from class: JsonDeserializer
        Method that can be called to ask implementation to deserialize JSON content into the value type this serializer handles. Returned instance is to be constructed by method itself.

        Pre-condition for this method is that the parser points to the first event that is part of value to deserializer (and which is never JSON 'null' literal, more on this below): for simple types it may be the only value; and for structured types the Object start marker or a FIELD_NAME.

        The two possible input conditions for structured types result from polymorphism via fields. In the ordinary case, Jackson calls this method when it has encountered an OBJECT_START, and the method implementation must advance to the next token to see the first field name. If the application configures polymorphism via a field, then the object looks like the following. 

              {
          "@class": "class name",
          ...
      }
        Jackson consumes the two tokens (the @class field name and its value) in order to learn the class and select the deserializer. Thus, the stream is pointing to the FIELD_NAME for the first field after the @class. Thus, if you want your method to work correctly both with and without polymorphism, you must begin your method with: 
               if (p.currentToken() == JsonToken.START_OBJECT) {
         p.nextToken();
       }
        This results in the stream pointing to the field name, so that the two conditions align.

        Post-condition is that the parser will point to the last event that is part of deserialized value (or in case deserialization fails, event that was not recognized or usable, which may be the same event as the one it pointed to upon call).

        Note that this method is never called for JSON null literal, and thus deserializers need (and should) not check for it.
