Class TypeIdResolverBase

java.lang.Object

com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.jsontype.impl.TypeIdResolverBase

All Implemented Interfaces:

TypeIdResolver

Direct Known Subclasses:

ClassNameIdResolver, TypeNameIdResolver

public abstract class TypeIdResolverBase
extends Object
implements TypeIdResolver

Partial base implementation of TypeIdResolver: all custom implementations are strongly recommended to extend this class, instead of directly implementing TypeIdResolver.

Note that instances created to be constructed from annotations (JsonTypeIdResolver) are always created using no-arguments constructor; protected constructor is only used sub-classes.

Field Summary

Fields

Method Summary

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
String	idFromBaseType() Method that can be called to figure out type id to use for instances of base type (declared type of property).
void	init(JavaType bt) Method that will be called once before any type resolution calls; used to initialize instance with configuration.
JavaType	typeFromId(DatabindContext context, String id) New method, replacement for typeFromId(String), which is given context for accessing information, including configuration and TypeFactory.
abstract JavaType	typeFromId(String id) Deprecated. Since 2.3, override typeFromId(DatabindContext, String) instead to get access to contextual information

Method Detail

init

public void init(JavaType bt)

Description copied from interface: TypeIdResolver

Method that will be called once before any type resolution calls; used to initialize instance with configuration. This is necessary since instances may be created via reflection, without ability to call specific constructor to pass in configuration settings.

Specified by:

init in interface TypeIdResolver

Parameters:

bt - Base type for which this id resolver instance is used

idFromBaseType

public String idFromBaseType()

Description copied from interface: TypeIdResolver

Method that can be called to figure out type id to use for instances of base type (declared type of property). This is usually only used for fallback handling, for cases where real type information is not available for some reason.

Specified by:

idFromBaseType in interface TypeIdResolver

typeFromId

@Deprecated
public abstract JavaType typeFromId(String id)

Deprecated. Since 2.3, override typeFromId(DatabindContext, String) instead to get access to contextual information

Description copied from interface: TypeIdResolver

Method called to resolve type from given type identifier.

Specified by:

typeFromId in interface TypeIdResolver

typeFromId

public JavaType typeFromId(DatabindContext context,
                  String id)

New method, replacement for typeFromId(String), which is given context for accessing information, including configuration and TypeFactory.

Returns:

Type for given id

Since:

2.3
