Class ObjectWriter

java.lang.Object
  com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectWriter

All Implemented Interfaces:

com.fasterxml.jackson.core.Versioned

public class ObjectWriter
extends Object
implements com.fasterxml.jackson.core.Versioned

Builder object that can be used for per-serialization configuration of serialization parameters, such as JSON View and root type to use. (and thus fully thread-safe with no external synchronization); new instances are constructed for different configurations. Instances are initially constructed by ObjectMapper and can be reused in completely thread-safe manner with no explicit synchronization
