public class CollectSerIteratorFactory
extends GuavaSerIteratorFactory

Factory used to create wrappers around collection-like objects.

CollectSerIteratorFactory

public CollectSerIteratorFactory()

create

public SerIterator create(Object value,
                          MetaProperty<?> prop,
                          Class<?> beanClass)

Creates an iterator wrapper for a meta-property value.

Overrides:

create in class GuavaSerIteratorFactory

Parameters:

value - the possible collection-like object, not null

prop - the meta-property defining the value, not null

beanClass - the class of the bean, not the meta-property, for better generics, not null

Returns:

the iterator, null if not a collection-like type

createChild

public SerIterator createChild(Object value,
                               SerIterator parent)

Creates an iterator wrapper for a value retrieved from a parent iterator.

Allows the parent iterator to define the child iterator using generic type information. This handles cases such as a List as the value in a Map.

Overrides:

createChild in class GuavaSerIteratorFactory

Parameters:

value - the possible collection-like object, not null

parent - the parent iterator, not null

Returns:

the iterator, null if not a collection-like type

createIterable

public SerIterable createIterable(String metaTypeDescription,
                                  JodaBeanSer settings,
                                  Map<String,Class<?>> knownTypes)

Creates an iterator wrapper for a meta-property value.

Overrides:

createIterable in class GuavaSerIteratorFactory

Parameters:

metaTypeDescription - the description of the collection type, not null

settings - the settings object, not null

knownTypes - the known types map, null if not using known type shortening

Returns:

the iterator, null if not a collection-like type

createIterable

public SerIterable createIterable(MetaProperty<?> prop,
                                  Class<?> beanClass)

Creates an iterator wrapper for a meta-property value.

Overrides:

createIterable in class GuavaSerIteratorFactory

Parameters:

prop - the meta-property defining the value, not null

beanClass - the class of the bean, not the meta-property, for better generics, not null

Returns:

the iterator, null if not a collection-like type

grid

public static final SerIterable grid(Class<?> valueType,
                                     List<Class<?>> valueTypeTypes)

Gets an iterable wrapper for Grid.

Parameters:

valueType - the value type, not null

valueTypeTypes - the generic parameters of the value type

Returns:

the iterable, not null

grid

public static final SerIterator grid(org.joda.collect.grid.Grid<?> grid,
                                     Class<?> declaredType,
                                     Class<?> valueType,
                                     List<Class<?>> valueTypeTypes)

Gets an iterator wrapper for Grid.

Parameters:

grid - the collection, not null

declaredType - the declared type, not null

valueType - the value type, not null

valueTypeTypes - the generic parameters of the value type

Returns:

the iterator, not null
