jackson-databind 2.4.0 API

Packages

Package	Description
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind	Contains basic mapper (conversion) functionality that allows for converting between regular streaming json content and Java objects (beans or Tree Model: support for both is via ObjectMapper class, as well as convenience methods included in JsonParser
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.annotation	Annotations that directly depend on classes in databinding bundle (not just Jackson core) and can not be included in Jackson core annotations package (because it can not have any external dependencies).
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.cfg	Package that contains most of configuration-related classes; exception being couple of most-commonly used configuration things (like Feature enumerations) that are at the main level (com.fasterxml.jackson.databind).
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.deser	Contains implementation classes of deserialization part of data binding.
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.deser.impl	Contains those implementation classes of deserialization part of data binding that are not considered part of public or semi-public interfaces.
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.deser.std	Contains public standard implementations of abstraction that Jackson uses.
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.exc
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ext	Contains extended support for "external" packages: things that may or may not be present in runtime environment, but that are commonly enough used so that explicit support can be added.
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.introspect	Functionality needed for Bean introspection, required for detecting accessors and mutators for Beans, as well as locating and handling method annotations.
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.jsonFormatVisitors	Classes used for exposing logical structure of POJOs as Jackson sees it, and exposed via ObjectMapper.acceptJsonFormatVisitor(Class, JsonFormatVisitorWrapper) and ObjectMapper.acceptJsonFormatVisitor(com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JavaType, JsonFormatVisitorWrapper) methods.
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.jsonschema	Classes needed for JSON schema support (currently just ability to generate schemas using serialization part of data mapping)
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.jsontype	Package that contains interfaces that define how to implement functionality for dynamically resolving type during deserialization.
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.jsontype.impl	Package that contains standard implementations for TypeResolverBuilder and TypeIdResolver.
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.module	Package that contains classes and interfaces to help implement custom extension Modules (which are registered using ObjectMapper.registerModule(com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.Module).
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.node	Contains concrete JsonNode implementations Jackson uses for the Tree model.
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ser	Contains implementation classes of serialization part of data binding.
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ser.impl	Contains implementation classes of serialization part of data binding.
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ser.std
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.type	Package that contains concrete implementations of JavaType, as well as the factory (TypeFactory) for constructing instances from various input data types (like Class, Type) and programmatically (for structured types, arrays, Lists and Maps).
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.util	Utility classes for Mapper package.
