Class JaxBeanInfo<BeanT>

java.lang.Object
com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.JaxBeanInfo<BeanT>
Direct Known Subclasses:
ClassBeanInfoImpl, CompositeStructureBeanInfo, ElementBeanInfoImpl

public abstract class JaxBeanInfo<BeanT> extends Object
Encapsulates various JAXB operations on objects bound by JAXB. Immutable and thread-safe.

Each JAXB-bound class has a corresponding JaxBeanInfo object, which performs all the JAXB related operations on behalf of the JAXB-bound object.

Given a class, the corresponding JaxBeanInfo can be located via JAXBContextImpl.getBeanInfo(Class,boolean).

Typically, JaxBeanInfo implementations should be generated by XJC/JXC. Those impl classes will register themselves to their master ObjectFactory class.

The type parameter BeanT is the Java class of the bean that this represents.

  • Field Details

    • isNilIncluded

      protected boolean isNilIncluded
    • flag

      protected short flag
      Various boolean flags combined into one field to improve memory footprint.
    • jaxbType

      public final Class<BeanT> jaxbType
      Gets the JAXB bound class type that this JaxBeanInfo handles.

      IOW, when a bean info object is requested for T, sometimes the bean info for one of its base classes might be returned.

  • Constructor Details

  • Method Details

    • hasBeforeUnmarshalMethod

      public final boolean hasBeforeUnmarshalMethod()
      True if jaxbType has the lifecycle method.
    • hasAfterUnmarshalMethod

      public final boolean hasAfterUnmarshalMethod()
      True if jaxbType has the lifecycle method.
    • hasBeforeMarshalMethod

      public final boolean hasBeforeMarshalMethod()
      True if jaxbType has the lifecycle method.
    • hasAfterMarshalMethod

      public final boolean hasAfterMarshalMethod()
      True if jaxbType has the lifecycle method.
    • isElement

      public final boolean isElement()
      Returns true if the bean is mapped to/from an XML element.

      When this method returns true, getElementNamespaceURI(Object) and getElementLocalName(Object) returns the element name of the bean.

    • isImmutable

      public final boolean isImmutable()
      Returns true if the bean is immutable.

      If this is true, Binder won't try to ueuse this object, and the unmarshaller won't create a new instance of it before it starts.

    • hasElementOnlyContentModel

      public final boolean hasElementOnlyContentModel()
      True if this bean has an element-only content model.

      If this flag is true, the unmarshaller can work faster by ignoring whitespaces more efficiently.

    • hasElementOnlyContentModel

      protected final void hasElementOnlyContentModel(boolean value)
      True if this bean has an element-only content model.

      Should be considered immutable, though I can't mark it final because it cannot be computed in this constructor.

    • isNilIncluded

      public boolean isNilIncluded()
    • lookForLifecycleMethods

      public boolean lookForLifecycleMethods()
      This method is used to determine which of the sub-classes should be interrogated for the existence of lifecycle methods.
      Returns:
      true if the un|marshaller should look for lifecycle methods on this beanInfo, false otherwise.
    • getElementNamespaceURI

      public abstract String getElementNamespaceURI(BeanT o)
      Returns the namespace URI portion of the element name, if the bean that this class represents is mapped from/to an XML element.
      Throws:
      UnsupportedOperationException - if isElement() is false.
    • getElementLocalName

      public abstract String getElementLocalName(BeanT o)
      Returns the local name portion of the element name, if the bean that this class represents is mapped from/to an XML element.
      Throws:
      UnsupportedOperationException - if isElement() is false.
    • getTypeNames

      public Collection<QName> getTypeNames()
      Returns XML Schema type names if the bean is mapped from a complex/simple type of XML Schema.

      This is an ugly necessity to correctly handle the type substitution semantics of XML Schema.

      A single Java class maybe mapped to more than one XML types. All the types listed here are recognized when we are unmarshalling XML.

      null if the class is not bound to a named schema type.

    • getTypeName

      public QName getTypeName(@NotNull BeanT instance)
      Returns the XML type name to be used to marshal the specified instance.

      Most of the times the type can be determined regardless of the actual instance, but there's a few exceptions (most notably XMLGregorianCalendar), so as a general rule we need an instance to determine it.

    • createInstance

      Creates a new instance of the bean.

      This operation is only supported when isImmutable() is false.

      Parameters:
      context - Sometimes the created bean remembers the corresponding source location,
      Throws:
      IllegalAccessException
      InvocationTargetException
      InstantiationException
      SAXException
    • reset

      public abstract boolean reset(BeanT o, UnmarshallingContext context) throws SAXException
      Resets the object to the initial state, as if the object is created fresh.

      This is used to reuse an existing object for unmarshalling.

      Parameters:
      context - used for reporting any errors.
      Returns:
      true if the object was successfuly resetted. False if the object is not resettable, in which case the object will be discarded and new one will be created.

      If the object is resettable but failed by an error, it should be reported to the context, then return false. If the object is not resettable to begin with, do not report an error.

      Throws:
      SAXException - as a result of reporting an error, the context may throw a SAXException.
    • getId

      public abstract String getId(BeanT o, XMLSerializer target) throws SAXException
      Gets the ID value of the given bean, if it has an ID value. Otherwise return null.
      Throws:
      SAXException
    • serializeBody

      public abstract void serializeBody(BeanT o, XMLSerializer target) throws SAXException, IOException, XMLStreamException
      Serializes child elements and texts into the specified target.
      Throws:
      SAXException
      IOException
      XMLStreamException
    • serializeAttributes

      public abstract void serializeAttributes(BeanT o, XMLSerializer target) throws SAXException, IOException, XMLStreamException
      Serializes attributes into the specified target.
      Throws:
      SAXException
      IOException
      XMLStreamException
    • serializeRoot

      public abstract void serializeRoot(BeanT o, XMLSerializer target) throws SAXException, IOException, XMLStreamException
      Serializes the bean as the root element.

      In the java-to-schema binding, an object might marshal in two different ways depending on whether it is used as the root of the graph or not. In the former case, an object could marshal as an element, whereas in the latter case, it marshals as a type.

      This method is used to marshal the root of the object graph to allow this semantics to be implemented.

      It is doubtful to me if it's a good idea for an object to marshal in two ways depending on the context.

      For schema-to-java, this is equivalent to serializeBody(Object, XMLSerializer).

      Throws:
      SAXException
      IOException
      XMLStreamException
    • serializeURIs

      public abstract void serializeURIs(BeanT o, XMLSerializer target) throws SAXException
      Declares all the namespace URIs this object is using at its top-level scope into the specified target.
      Throws:
      SAXException
    • getLoader

      public abstract Loader getLoader(JAXBContextImpl context, boolean typeSubstitutionCapable)
      Gets the Loader that will unmarshall the given object.
      Parameters:
      context - The JAXBContextImpl object that governs this object. This object is taken as a parameter so that JaxBeanInfo doesn't have to store them on its own. When this method is invoked from within the unmarshaller, tihs parameter can be null (because the loader is constructed already.)
      typeSubstitutionCapable - If true, the returned Loader is capable of recognizing @xsi:type (if necessary) and unmarshals a subtype. This allowes an optimization where this bean info is guaranteed not to have a type substitution. If false, the returned Loader doesn't look for @xsi:type.
      Returns:
      must return non-null valid object
    • getTransducer

      public abstract Transducer<BeanT> getTransducer()
      If the bean's representation in XML is just a text, this method return a Transducer that lets you convert values between the text and the bean.
    • link

      protected void link(JAXBContextImpl grammar)
      Called after all the JaxBeanInfos are created.
      Parameters:
      grammar -
    • wrapUp

      public void wrapUp()
      Called at the end of the JAXBContext initialization phase to clean up any unnecessary references.
    • setLifecycleFlags

      protected final void setLifecycleFlags()
      use reflection to determine which of the 4 object lifecycle methods exist on the JAXB bound type.
    • getLifecycleMethods

      public final com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.LifecycleMethods getLifecycleMethods()
      Return the LifecycleMethods cache for this ClassBeanInfo's corresponding jaxbType if it exists, else return null.
    • invokeBeforeUnmarshalMethod

      public final void invokeBeforeUnmarshalMethod(UnmarshallerImpl unm, Object child, Object parent) throws SAXException
      Invokes the beforeUnmarshal method if applicable.
      Throws:
      SAXException
    • invokeAfterUnmarshalMethod

      public final void invokeAfterUnmarshalMethod(UnmarshallerImpl unm, Object child, Object parent) throws SAXException
      Invokes the afterUnmarshal method if applicable.
      Throws:
      SAXException
