Interface ResolvableSerializer

All Known Implementing Classes:
BeanAsArraySerializer, BeanSerializer, BeanSerializerBase, StdDelegatingSerializer, UnwrappingBeanSerializer, UnwrappingXmlBeanSerializer, XmlBeanSerializer, XmlBeanSerializerBase
public interface ResolvableSerializer
Interface used to indicate serializers that want to do post-processing after construction and being added to SerializerProvider, but before being used. This is typically used to resolve references to other contained types; for example, bean serializers use this to eagerly find serializers for contained field types.

Note that in cases where serializer needs both contextualization and resolution -- that is, implements both this interface and ContextualSerializer -- resolution via this interface occurs first, and contextual resolution (using ContextualSerializer) later on.

    • resolve

      void resolve(SerializerProvider provider) throws JsonMappingException
      Method called after SerializerProvider has registered the serializer, but before it has returned it to the caller. Called object can then resolve its dependencies to other types, including self-references (direct or indirect).

      Note that this method does NOT return serializer, since resolution is not allowed to change actual serializer to use.

      Parameters:
      provider - Provider that has constructed serializer this method is called on.
      Throws:
      JsonMappingException
