Optional Element Summary

Optional Elements

Modifier and Type	Optional Element and Description
boolean	dynamic Gets or sets value that indicates if nested serialization level is resolved dynamically.
boolean	isCustomType Must be set to true if current property is Custom Hibernate Type.
byte	nested If the current property represents nested domain object, then this field defines the Level of serialization applied to the child properties of the domain object
java.lang.Class<? extends IParser>	parser You can provide your own parser.
byte	value Level of serialization applied to this property

Element Detail

value

public abstract byte value

Level of serialization applied to this property

Default:

1

nested

public abstract byte nested

If the current property represents nested domain object, then this field defines the Level of serialization applied to the child properties of the domain object

Default:

1

parser

public abstract java.lang.Class<? extends IParser> parser

You can provide your own parser. Creating custom parser is simple. You have to implement the IParser interface. If parsing is impossible due to wrong format custom parser must throw some Exception

Returns:

Default:

org.jeneva.IParser.class

isCustomType

public abstract boolean isCustomType

Must be set to true if current property is Custom Hibernate Type.

Returns:

Default:

false

dynamic

public abstract boolean dynamic

Gets or sets value that indicates if nested serialization level is resolved dynamically. Nested level can be dynamic if you are trying to serialize parent object using some level higher than the level indicated in the DtoAttribute.Value. In this case the nested level is calculated at runtime based on difference between the required level and the DtoAttribute.Value. This difference is added to the DtoAttribute.Nested serialization level. This behaviour works only if Dynamic property is true.

Returns:

Default:

false
