Interface RpcDecoder
- All Superinterfaces:
Serializable
- All Known Implementing Classes:
DefaultRpcDecoder
,StringToEnumDecoder
,StringToNumberDecoder
Decoder of RPC method arguments (server-side methods invoked from the
client-side).
The client-side argument type and the server-side argument type doesn't have to match. The decoders are applied to be able to handle arguments whose types on the server side and on the client side are different.
Each decoder is checked whether it's may be used to handle the argument value
with the required server-side parameter type via the
isApplicable(JsonValue, Class)
method. Decoder is applied to the
received value and required type if it's applicable.
For internal use only. May be renamed or removed in a future release.
