Direct Known Subclasses:

HtmlBeanDictionary

public class BeanDictionaryList
extends ArrayList<Class<?>>

Represents a collection of bean classes that make up a bean dictionary.

The classes in the list must be one of the following:

• Beans that provide a dictionary name using the @Bean(typeName) annotation.
• Other subclasses of BeanDictionaryList.
• Other subclasses of BeanDictionaryMap.

Example:

// A bean dictionary list consisting of classes with @Bean(typeName) annotations. public class MyBeanDictionaryList extends BeanDictionaryList { // Must provide a no-arg constructor! public MyBeanDictionaryList() { super(ABean.class, BBean.class, CBean.class); } } // Use it in a parser. ReaderParser p = JsonParser .create() .dictionary(MyBeanDictionaryList.class) .build();

Subclasses must implement a public no-arg constructor so that it can be instantiated by the bean context code.
