All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable
Direct Known Subclasses:
JsonpCharacterEscapes

public abstract class CharacterEscapes extends Object implements Serializable
Abstract base class that defines interface for customizing character escaping aspects for String values, for formats that use escaping. For JSON this applies to both property names and String values.

    Field
    Description
    static final int
    Value used for lookup tables to indicate that matching characters will need custom escapes; and that another call to getEscapeSequence(int) is needed to figure out exact escape sequence to output.
    static final int
    Value used for lookup tables to indicate that matching characters do not need to be escaped.
    static final int
    Value used for lookup tables to indicate that matching characters are to be escaped using standard escaping; for JSON this means (for example) using "backslash - u" escape method.

    Description
    abstract int[]
    Method generators can call to get lookup table for determining escape handling for first 128 characters of Unicode (ASCII characters.
    Method generators can call to get lookup table for determining exact escape sequence to use for given character.
    static int[]
    Helper method that can be used to get a copy of standard JSON escape definitions; this is useful when just wanting to slightly customize definitions.

    • ESCAPE_NONE

      public static final int ESCAPE_NONE
      Value used for lookup tables to indicate that matching characters do not need to be escaped.

    • ESCAPE_STANDARD

      public static final int ESCAPE_STANDARD
      Value used for lookup tables to indicate that matching characters are to be escaped using standard escaping; for JSON this means (for example) using "backslash - u" escape method.

    • ESCAPE_CUSTOM

      public static final int ESCAPE_CUSTOM
      Value used for lookup tables to indicate that matching characters will need custom escapes; and that another call to getEscapeSequence(int) is needed to figure out exact escape sequence to output.

    • getEscapeCodesForAscii

      public abstract int[] getEscapeCodesForAscii()
      Method generators can call to get lookup table for determining escape handling for first 128 characters of Unicode (ASCII characters. Caller is not to modify contents of this array, since this is expected to be a shared copy.
      Returns:
      Array with size of at least 128, where first 128 entries have either one of ESCAPE_xxx constants, or non-zero positive integer (meaning of which is data format specific; for JSON it means that combination of backslash and character with that value is to be used) to indicate that specific escape sequence is to be used.
    • getEscapeSequence

      public abstract SerializableString getEscapeSequence(int ch)
      Method generators can call to get lookup table for determining exact escape sequence to use for given character. It can be called for any character, but typically is called for either for ASCII characters for which custom escape sequence is needed; or for any non-ASCII character.
      Parameters:
      ch - Character to look escape sequence for
      Returns:
      Escape sequence to use for the character, if any; null if not
    • standardAsciiEscapesForJSON

      public static int[] standardAsciiEscapesForJSON()
      Helper method that can be used to get a copy of standard JSON escape definitions; this is useful when just wanting to slightly customize definitions. Caller can modify this array as it sees fit and usually returns modified instance via getEscapeCodesForAscii()
      Returns:
      Set of escapes, similar to getEscapeCodesForAscii() (array of 128 ints), but a copy that caller owns and is free to modify
