SettableBeanProperty (jackson-databind 2.5.0 API)

java.lang.Object
- com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.deser.SettableBeanProperty

All Implemented Interfaces:

BeanProperty, Named, Serializable

Direct Known Subclasses:

CreatorProperty, FieldProperty, InnerClassProperty, ManagedReferenceProperty, MethodProperty, ObjectIdReferenceProperty, ObjectIdValueProperty, SetterlessProperty
```
public abstract class SettableBeanProperty
extends Object
implements BeanProperty, Serializable
```
Base class for deserializable properties of a bean: contains both type and name definitions, and reflection-based set functionality. Concrete sub-classes implement details, so that field- and setter-backed properties, as well as a few more esoteric variations, can be handled.

Field Summary

Fields
Modifier and Type	Field and Description
`protected Annotations`	`_contextAnnotations` Class that contains this property (either class that declares the property or one of its subclasses), class that is deserialized using deserializer that contains this property.
`protected String`	`_managedReferenceName` If property represents a managed (forward) reference (see [JACKSON-235]), we will need name of reference for later linking.
`protected PropertyMetadata`	`_metadata` Additional optional property metadata, such as whether property is required, and whether there is additional human-readable description
`protected NullProvider`	`_nullProvider` Object used to figure out value to be used when 'null' literal is encountered in JSON.
`protected ObjectIdInfo`	`_objectIdInfo` This is the information for object identity associated with the property.
`protected int`	`_propertyIndex` Index of property (within all property of a bean); assigned when all properties have been collected.
`protected PropertyName`	`_propName` Logical name of the property (often but not always derived from the setter method name)
`protected JavaType`	`_type` Base type for property; may be a supertype of actual value.
`protected JsonDeserializer<Object>`	`_valueDeserializer` Deserializer used for handling property value.
`protected TypeDeserializer`	`_valueTypeDeserializer` If value will contain type information (to support polymorphic handling), this is the type deserializer used to handle type resolution.
`protected ViewMatcher`	`_viewMatcher` Helper object used for checking whether this property is to be included in the active view, if property is view-specific; null otherwise.
`protected PropertyName`	`_wrapperName`
`protected static JsonDeserializer<Object>`	`MISSING_VALUE_DESERIALIZER` To avoid nasty NPEs, let's use a placeholder for _valueDeserializer, if real deserializer is not (yet) available.

  - _nullProvider
```

```
    Method called to deserialize appropriate value, given parser (and context), and set it using appropriate mechanism. Pre-condition is that passed parser must point to the first token that should be consumed to produce the value (the only value for scalars, multiple for Objects and Arrays).

```
    Alternative to deserializeAndSet(com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonParser, com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.DeserializationContext, java.lang.Object) that returns either return value of setter method called (if one is), or null to indicate that no return value is available. Mostly used to support Builder style deserialization.

    Method called to assign given value to this property, on specified Object.
    Note: this is an optional operation, not supported by all implementations, creator-backed properties for example do not support this method.

  - setAndReturn
```
public abstract Object setAndReturn(Object instance,

```
    Method called to assign given value to this property, on specified Object, and return whatever delegating accessor returned (if anything)

```
    This method is needed by some specialized bean deserializers, and also called by some deserializeAndSet(com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonParser, com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.DeserializationContext, java.lang.Object) implementations.
    Pre-condition is that passed parser must point to the first token that should be consumed to produce the value (the only value for scalars, multiple for Objects and Arrays).
    Note that this method is final for performance reasons: to override functionality you must override other methods that call this method; this method should also not be called directly unless you really know what you are doing (and probably not even then).
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException
  - _throwAsIOE
```
protected void _throwAsIOE(Exception e,
