Class BeanPropertyDefinition

java.lang.Object

org.codehaus.jackson.map.BeanPropertyDefinition

All Implemented Interfaces:

Named

Direct Known Subclasses:

POJOPropertyBuilder

public abstract class BeanPropertyDefinition
extends Object
implements Named

Simple value classes that contain definitions of properties, used during introspection of properties to use for serialization and deserialization purposes. These instances are created before actual BeanProperty instances are created, i.e. they are used earlier in the process flow.

Since:

1.9

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
boolean	couldDeserialize()
boolean	couldSerialize()
abstract AnnotatedMember	getAccessor() Method used to find accessor (getter, field to access) to use for accessing value of the property.
abstract AnnotatedParameter	getConstructorParameter()
abstract AnnotatedField	getField()
abstract AnnotatedMethod	getGetter()
abstract String	getInternalName() Accessor that can be used to determine implicit name from underlying element(s) before possible renaming.
abstract AnnotatedMember	getMutator() Method used to find mutator (constructor parameter, setter, field) to use for changing value of the property.
abstract String	getName() Accessor for name used for external representation (in JSON).
abstract AnnotatedMethod	getSetter()
abstract boolean	hasConstructorParameter()
abstract boolean	hasField()
abstract boolean	hasGetter()
abstract boolean	hasSetter()
abstract boolean	isExplicitlyIncluded() Accessor that can be called to check whether property was included due to an explicit marker (usually annotation), or just by naming convention.

Method Detail

getName

public abstract String getName()

Accessor for name used for external representation (in JSON).

Specified by:

getName in interface Named

getInternalName

public abstract String getInternalName()

Accessor that can be used to determine implicit name from underlying element(s) before possible renaming. This is the "internal" name derived from accessor ("x" from "getX"), and is not based on annotations or naming strategy.

isExplicitlyIncluded

public abstract boolean isExplicitlyIncluded()

Accessor that can be called to check whether property was included due to an explicit marker (usually annotation), or just by naming convention.

Returns:

True if property was explicitly included (usually by having one of components being annotated); false if inclusion was purely due to naming or visibility definitions (that is, implicit)
