All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable<SerdeSkipDeserializingIf.SkipDeIf>

Enclosing class:

SerdeSkipDeserializingIf

public static enum SerdeSkipDeserializingIf.SkipDeIf
extends java.lang.Enum<SerdeSkipDeserializingIf.SkipDeIf>

A condition that defines when to skip the field during deserialization.

The field is skipped if the condition is true.

Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant and Description
CUSTOM Skip the field if the corresponding config value satisfies a custom condition, defined by SerdeSkipDeserializingIf.customCheck().
IS_EMPTY Skip the field if the corresponding config value is empty.
IS_MISSING Skip the field if the corresponding config entry is missing.
IS_NULL Skip the field if the corresponding config value is null.

Enum Constant Detail

IS_MISSING

public static final SerdeSkipDeserializingIf.SkipDeIf IS_MISSING

Skip the field if the corresponding config entry is missing.

IS_NULL

public static final SerdeSkipDeserializingIf.SkipDeIf IS_NULL

Skip the field if the corresponding config value is null.

IS_EMPTY

public static final SerdeSkipDeserializingIf.SkipDeIf IS_EMPTY

Skip the field if the corresponding config value is empty.

Determining whether an object is "empty" or not is done in a "logical" way for common Java objects. For instance, a CharSequence is empty is its length() is zero, a Collection is empty if calling isEmpty() returns true, etc. As a last-resort try to implement the "is empty" check, reflection is used to find and call the method boolean isEmpty() on the value.

CUSTOM

public static final SerdeSkipDeserializingIf.SkipDeIf CUSTOM

Skip the field if the corresponding config value satisfies a custom condition, defined by SerdeSkipDeserializingIf.customCheck().

Method Detail

values

public static SerdeSkipDeserializingIf.SkipDeIf[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (SerdeSkipDeserializingIf.SkipDeIf c : SerdeSkipDeserializingIf.SkipDeIf.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static SerdeSkipDeserializingIf.SkipDeIf valueOf(java.lang.String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null
