Field Summary

Fields

Modifier and Type	Field and Description
static String	PROPERTY_TYPE The JSON property name for the type information for polymorphic mapping of #getClass().

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
void	fromJson(javax.json.stream.JsonParser json) Deserializes this object from JSON (JavaScript-Object-Notation).
void	toJson(javax.json.stream.JsonGenerator json) Serializes this object as JSON (JavaScript-Object-Notation).

Field Detail

static final String PROPERTY_TYPE

The JSON property name for the type information for polymorphic mapping of #getClass().

Method Detail

toJson

void toJson(javax.json.stream.JsonGenerator json)

Serializes this object as JSON (JavaScript-Object-Notation).

Parameters:

json - the JsonGenerator where to write this object to. Has to be in JsonGenerator.writeStartObject() state.

See Also:

JsonUtil.write(JsonGenerator, String, Object)

fromJson

void fromJson(javax.json.stream.JsonParser json)

Deserializes this object from JSON (JavaScript-Object-Notation). This operation is typically NOT symmetric to toJson(JsonGenerator) - e.g. toJson(JsonGenerator) might write a property with its value while fromJson(JsonParser) may only deserialze the value as the parent object has to handle the property names that may appear in any order.

Parameters:

json - the JsonParser to read from.
