edu.internet2.middleware.grouperClientExt.com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.type.CollectionLikeType
All Implemented Interfaces:
JsonSerializable, Serializable, Type
Direct Known Subclasses:
CollectionType
public class CollectionLikeType extends TypeBase
Type that represents things that act similar to Collection; but may or may not be instances of that interface. This specifically allows framework to check for configuration and annotation settings used for Map types, and pass these to custom handlers that may be more familiar with actual type.

      Since 2.7, use upgradeFrom(edu.internet2.middleware.grouperClientExt.com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType, edu.internet2.middleware.grouperClientExt.com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType) for constructing instances, given pre-resolved SimpleType.

    • withContentType

      public JavaType withContentType(JavaType contentType)
      Description copied from class: JavaType
      Mutant factory method that may be called on structured types that have a so-called content type (element of arrays, value type of Maps, referenced type of referential types), and will construct a new instance that is identical to this instance, except that it has specified content type, instead of current one. If content type is already set to given type, this is returned. If type does not have a content type (which is the case with SimpleType), IllegalArgumentException will be thrown.
      Specified by:
      withContentType in class JavaType
      Returns:
      Newly created type instance

      Internal method that should not be used by any code outside of jackson-databind: only used internally by databind. May be removed from Jackson 3.0.

      This mutant factory method will construct a new instance that is identical to this instance, except that it will have specified content type (element type for arrays, value type for Maps and so forth) handler assigned.

      Specified by:
      withContentTypeHandler in class JavaType
      Parameters:
      h - Handler to pass to new instance created

      withValueHandler in class JavaType
      Parameters:
      h - Handler to pass to new instance created
      Returns:
      Newly created type instance with same type information, specified handler

    • withContentValueHandler

      public CollectionLikeType withContentValueHandler(Object h)
      Description copied from class: JavaType
      Internal method that should not be used by any code outside of jackson-databind: only used internally by databind. May be removed from Jackson 3.0.

      Specified by:
      withContentValueHandler in class JavaType
      Parameters:
      h - Handler to pass to new instance created
      Returns:
      Newly created type instance with same type information, specified handler

    • withHandlersFrom

      public JavaType withHandlersFrom(JavaType src)
      Description copied from class: JavaType
      Internal method that should not be used by any code outside of jackson-databind: only used internally by databind. May be removed from Jackson 3.0.

      Mutant factory method that will try to copy handlers that the specified source type instance had, if any; this must be done recursively where necessary (as content types may be structured).

      Overrides:
      withHandlersFrom in class JavaType

    • withStaticTyping

      public CollectionLikeType withStaticTyping()
      Description copied from class: JavaType
      Method that can be called to get a type instance that indicates that values of the type should be handled using "static typing" for purposes of serialization (as opposed to "dynamic" aka runtime typing): meaning that no runtime information is needed for determining serializers to use. The main use case is to allow forcing of specific root value serialization type, and specifically in resolving serializers for contained types (element types for arrays, Collections and Maps).
      Specified by:
      withStaticTyping in class JavaType

    • refine

      public JavaType refine(Class<?> rawType, TypeBindings bindings, JavaType superClass, JavaType[] superInterfaces)
      Description copied from class: JavaType
      Mutant factory method that will try to create and return a sub-type instance for known parameterized types; for other types will return `null` to indicate that no just refinement makes necessary sense, without trying to detect special status through implemented interfaces.
      Specified by:
      refine in class JavaType
