Class TokenBufferSerializer

All Implemented Interfaces:
SchemaAware

public class TokenBufferSerializer extends SerializerBase<TokenBuffer>
We also want to directly support serialization of TokenBuffer; and since it is part of core package, it can not implement JsonSerializable (which is only included in the mapper package)
Since:
1.5

    • serialize

      public void serialize(TokenBuffer value, JsonGenerator jgen, SerializerProvider provider) throws IOException, JsonGenerationException
      Description copied from class: JsonSerializer
      Method that can be called to ask implementation to serialize values of type this serializer handles.
      Specified by:
      serialize in class SerializerBase<TokenBuffer>
      Parameters:
      value - Value to serialize; can not be null.
      jgen - Generator used to output resulting Json content
      provider - Provider that can be used to get serializers for serializing Objects value contains, if any.
      Throws:
      IOException
      JsonGenerationException
    • serializeWithType

      public final void serializeWithType(TokenBuffer value, JsonGenerator jgen, SerializerProvider provider, TypeSerializer typeSer) throws IOException, JsonGenerationException
      Implementing typed output for contents of a TokenBuffer is very tricky, since we do not know for sure what its contents might look like (or, rather, we do know when serializing, but not necessarily when deserializing!) One possibility would be to check the current token, and use that to determine if we would output JSON Array, Object or scalar value. Jackson 1.5 did NOT include any type information; but this seems wrong, and so 1.6 WILL include type information.

      Note that we just claim it is scalar; this should work ok and is simpler than doing introspection on both serialization and deserialization.

      Overrides:
      serializeWithType in class JsonSerializer<TokenBuffer>
      Parameters:
      value - Value to serialize; can not be null.
      jgen - Generator used to output resulting Json content
      provider - Provider that can be used to get serializers for serializing Objects value contains, if any.
      typeSer - Type serializer to use for including type information
      Throws:
      IOException
      JsonGenerationException
    • getSchema

      public JsonNode getSchema(SerializerProvider provider, Type typeHint)
      Description copied from class: SerializerBase
      Note: since Jackson 1.9, default implementation claims type is "string"
      Specified by:
      getSchema in interface SchemaAware
      Overrides:
      getSchema in class SerializerBase<TokenBuffer>
      Parameters:
      provider - The serializer provider.
      typeHint - A hint about the type.
      Returns:
      Json-schema for this serializer.
