  org.kuali.rice.krad.util.documentserializer.PropertySerializerTrie

public class PropertySerializerTrie
extends Object

This is a implementation of a trie/prefix tree of that contains metadata about property serializability during the document serialization process.

Method Detail

addSerializablePropertyName

public void addSerializablePropertyName(String propertyName,
                                        boolean setPropertySerializabilityToObjectAndAllPrimitivesForAll)

Registers a new serializable property so that all of its primitives are serialized. All nesting properties will be serialized only to render open/close tags to maintain consistency with the document structure, unless they are registered as well. For example, if only property "document.a.b" is registered, then the XML will look like the following: <document> <a> <b> <primitiveOfB>valueOfPrimitive</primitiveOfB> </b> </a> </document> That is, primitives of "document" and "document.a" will not be serialized unless those property strings are registered.

Parameters:

propertyName -

setPropertySerializabilityToObjectAndAllPrimitivesForAll -

getPropertySerializabilityMetadata

public PropertySerializabilityMetadata getPropertySerializabilityMetadata(String propertyName)

Retrieves the metadata about the given property name

Parameters:

propertyName -

Returns:

getRootPropertySerializibilityMetadata

public PropertySerializabilityMetadata getRootPropertySerializibilityMetadata()

Returns the root node of the trie

Returns:

validateAttributeNameComponent

protected void validateAttributeNameComponent(String attributeNameComponent)
