Interface PropertySerializabilityEvaluator

All Known Implementing Classes:

AlwaysFalsePropertySerializabilityEvaluator, AlwaysTruePropertySerializibilityEvaluator, BusinessObjectPropertySerializibilityEvaluator, MaintenanceDocumentPropertySerializibilityEvaluator, PropertySerializabilityEvaluatorBase

public interface PropertySerializabilityEvaluator

Specifies an implementation used during document workflow XML serialization that will be able to determine whether a specific property is serializable

Method Summary

PropertyType	determinePropertyType(Object object) Determines the type of a object
void	initializeEvaluatorForDataObject(Object businessObject)
void	initializeEvaluatorForDocument(Document document) Initializes the evaluator so that calls to #isPropertySerializable(DocumentSerializationState, Object, String, Object) and determinePropertyType(Object) will function properly
boolean	isPropertySerializable(SerializationState state, Object containingObject, String childPropertyName, Object childPropertyValue) Determines whether a child property of an object is serializable.

Method Detail

initializeEvaluatorForDocument

void initializeEvaluatorForDocument(Document document)

Initializes the evaluator so that calls to #isPropertySerializable(DocumentSerializationState, Object, String, Object) and determinePropertyType(Object) will function properly

Parameters:

document - the document instance

initializeEvaluatorForDataObject

void initializeEvaluatorForDataObject(Object businessObject)

isPropertySerializable

boolean isPropertySerializable(SerializationState state,
                               Object containingObject,
                               String childPropertyName,
                               Object childPropertyValue)

Determines whether a child property of an object is serializable.

Parameters:

state - Information about the properties that have been serialized so far

containingObject - The object containing the reference to childPropertyValue

childPropertyName - The name property to determine whether to serialize, relative to containingObject (i.e. not a nested attribute)

childPropertyValue - If serializable, this property would be serialized by the serializer service.

Returns:

determinePropertyType

PropertyType determinePropertyType(Object object)

Determines the type of a object

Parameters:

object -

Returns:
