Method Detail

applyFieldSerializationPolicy

public static java.lang.reflect.Field[] applyFieldSerializationPolicy(java.lang.Class<?> clazz)

Returns the fields of a particular class that can be considered for serialization. The returned list will be sorted into a canonical order to ensure consistent answers. TODO: this method needs a better name, I think.

decodeSerializedInstanceReference

public static SerializedInstanceReference decodeSerializedInstanceReference(java.lang.String encodedSerializedInstanceReference)

encodeSerializedInstanceReference

public static java.lang.String encodeSerializedInstanceReference(java.lang.Class<?> instanceType,
                                                                 SerializationPolicy policy)

getSerializationSignature

public static java.lang.String getSerializationSignature(java.lang.Class<?> instanceType,
                                                         SerializationPolicy policy)

getSerializedTypeName

public static java.lang.String getSerializedTypeName(java.lang.Class<?> instanceType)

hasCustomFieldSerializer

public static java.lang.Class<?> hasCustomFieldSerializer(java.lang.Class<?> instanceType)

Returns the Class which can serialize the given instance type, or null if this class has no custom field serializer. Note that arrays never have custom field serializers.
