public class SimpleType extends TypeBase
Simple types are defined as anything other than one of recognized container types (arrays, Collections, Maps). For our needs we need not know anything further, since we have no way of dealing with generic types other than Collections and Maps.

  • Constructor Details

    • SimpleType

      protected SimpleType(Class<?> cls)
      Constructor only used by core Jackson databind functionality; should never be called by application code.

      As with other direct construction that by-passes TypeFactory, no introspection occurs with respect to super-types; caller must be aware of consequences if using this method.

    • SimpleType

      protected SimpleType(Class<?> cls, TypeBindings bindings, JavaType superClass, JavaType[] superInts)

    • SimpleType

      protected SimpleType(TypeBase base)
      Simple copy-constructor, usually used when upgrading/refining a simple type into more specialized type.
      Since:
      2.7

    • SimpleType

      protected SimpleType(Class<?> cls, TypeBindings bindings, JavaType superClass, JavaType[] superInts, Object valueHandler, Object typeHandler, boolean asStatic)

    • SimpleType

      protected SimpleType(Class<?> cls, TypeBindings bindings, JavaType superClass, JavaType[] superInts, int extraHash, Object valueHandler, Object typeHandler, boolean asStatic)
      Pass-through constructor used by ReferenceType.
      Since:
      2.6

  • Method Details

    • constructUnsafe

      public static SimpleType constructUnsafe(Class<?> raw)
      Method used by core Jackson classes: NOT to be used by application code: it does NOT properly handle inspection of super-types, so neither parent Classes nor implemented Interfaces are accessible with resulting type instance.

      NOTE: public only because it is called by ObjectMapper which is not in same package

    • construct

      @Deprecated public static SimpleType construct(Class<?> cls)
      Deprecated.
      Since 2.7
      Method that should NOT to be used by application code: it does NOT properly handle inspection of super-types, so neither parent Classes nor implemented Interfaces are accessible with resulting type instance. Instead, please use TypeFactory's constructType methods which handle introspection appropriately.

      Note that prior to 2.7, method usage was not limited and would typically have worked acceptably: the problem comes from inability to resolve super-type information, for which TypeFactory is needed.

    • _narrow

      @Deprecated protected JavaType _narrow(Class<?> subclass)
      Deprecated.

    • 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

    • withTypeHandler

      public SimpleType withTypeHandler(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.

      This mutant factory method will construct a new instance that is identical to this instance, except that it will have specified type handler assigned.

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

    • withContentTypeHandler

      public JavaType withContentTypeHandler(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.

      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
      Returns:
      Newly created type instance with same type information, specified handler

    • withValueHandler

      public SimpleType withValueHandler(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.

      This mutant factory method will construct a new instance that is identical to this instance, except that it will have specified value handler assigned.

      Specified by:
      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 SimpleType withContentValueHandler(Object h)

      h - Handler to pass to new instance created
      Returns:
      Newly created type instance with same type information, specified handler

    • withStaticTyping

      public SimpleType 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.

    • hasContentType

      public boolean hasContentType()
