Method Detail

swap

public String swap(BeanSession session,
                   Object o)
            throws Exception

Description copied from class: PojoSwap

If this transform is to be used to serialize non-serializable POJOs, it must implement this method.

The object must be converted into one of the following serializable types:

• String
• Number
• Boolean
• Collection containing anything on this list.
• Map containing anything on this list.
• A java bean with properties of anything on this list.
• An array of anything on this list.

Overrides:

swap in class StringSwap<Object>

Parameters:

session - The bean session to use to get the class meta. This is always going to be the same bean context that created this swap.

o - The object to be transformed.

Returns:

The transformed object.

Throws:

Exception - If a problem occurred trying to convert the output.

unswap

public Object unswap(BeanSession session,
                     String f,
                     ClassMeta<?> hint)
              throws Exception

Description copied from class: PojoSwap

If this transform is to be used to reconstitute POJOs that aren't true Java beans, it must implement this method.

Overrides:

unswap in class StringSwap<Object>

Parameters:

session - The bean session to use to get the class meta. This is always going to be the same bean context that created this swap.

f - The transformed object.

hint - If possible, the parser will try to tell you the object type being created. For example, on a serialized date, this may tell you that the object being created must be of type GregorianCalendar.
This may be null if the parser cannot make this determination.

Returns:

The narrowed object.

Throws:

Exception - If this method is not implemented.
