Method Detail

representJavaBean

protected MappingNode representJavaBean(Set<Property> properties,
                                        Object javaBean)

Tag logic:
- explicit root tag is set in serializer
- if there is a predefined class tag it is used
- a global tag with class name is always used as tag. The JavaBean parent of the specified JavaBean may set another tag (tag:yaml.org,2002:map) when the property class is the same as runtime class

Parameters:

properties - JavaBean getters

javaBean - instance for Node

Returns:

Node to get serialized

representJavaBeanProperty

protected NodeTuple representJavaBeanProperty(Object javaBean,
                                              Property property,
                                              Object propertyValue,
                                              Tag customTag)

Represent one JavaBean property.

Parameters:

javaBean - - the instance to be represented

property - - the property of the instance

propertyValue - - value to be represented

customTag - - user defined Tag

Returns:

NodeTuple to be used in a MappingNode. Return null to skip the property

checkGlobalTag

protected void checkGlobalTag(Property property,
                              Node node,
                              Object object)

Remove redundant global tag for a type safe (generic) collection if it is the same as defined by the JavaBean property

Parameters:

property - - JavaBean property

node - - representation of the property

object - - instance represented by the node

getProperties

protected Set<Property> getProperties(Class<? extends Object> type)
                               throws IntrospectionException

Get JavaBean properties to be serialised. The order is respected. This method may be overridden to provide custom property selection or order.

Parameters:

type - - JavaBean to inspect the properties

Returns:

properties to serialise

Throws:

IntrospectionException

getTag

protected Tag getTag(Class<?> clazz,
                     Tag defaultTag)

addClassTag

public Tag addClassTag(Class<? extends Object> clazz,
                       String tag)

Deprecated. use Tag instead of String

Define a tag for the Class to serialize

Parameters:

clazz - Class which tag is changed

tag - new tag to be used for every instance of the specified Class

Returns:

the previous tag associated with the Class

addClassTag

public Tag addClassTag(Class<? extends Object> clazz,
                       Tag tag)

Define a tag for the Class to serialize.

Parameters:

clazz - Class which tag is changed

tag - new tag to be used for every instance of the specified Class

Returns:

the previous tag associated with the Class

getTimeZone

public TimeZone getTimeZone()

setTimeZone

public void setTimeZone(TimeZone timeZone)
