Class SerDeserializers

java.lang.Object
  org.joda.beans.ser.SerDeserializers

public final class SerDeserializers
extends Object

Manages a map of deserializers that assist with data migration.

Deserializers handle situations where the data being read does not match the bean in the classpath. See also RenameHandler.

Normally, it makes sense to customize the shared singleton instance, because the classpath is static and fixed and the transformations are common.

Implementations must be thread-safe singletons.

INSTANCE

Shared global instance which can be mutated.

SerDeserializers

public SerDeserializers()

Creates an instance.

SerDeserializers

public SerDeserializers(SerDeserializerProvider... providers)
