Jackson Data Binding Source Code

Jackson is "the Java JSON library" or "the best JSON parser for Java". Or simply as "JSON for Java".

  • Jackson Data Binding module allows you to converts JSON to and from POJO (Plain Old Java Object) using property accessor or using annotations.
  • Jackson Databind Source Code files are provided in the source packge (jackson-databind-2.14.0-sources.jar). You can download it at Jackson Maven Website.

     * Abstract class that defines API used by {@link DeserializationContext}
     * to construct actual
     * {@link JsonDeserializer} instances (which are then cached by
     * context and/or dedicated cache).
     *<p>
     * Since there are multiple broad categories of deserializers, there are 
     * multiple factory methods:
     *<ul>
     * <li>For JSON "Array" type, we need 2 methods: one to deal with expected
     *   Java arrays ({@link #createArrayDeserializer})
     *   and the other for other Java containers like {@link java.util.List}s
     *   and {@link java.util.Set}s ({@link #createCollectionDeserializer}).
     *   Actually there is also a third method for "Collection-like" types;
     *   things like Scala collections that act like JDK collections but do not
     *   implement same interfaces.
     *  </li>
     * <li>For JSON "Object" type, we need 2 methods: one to deal with
     *   expected Java {@link java.util.Map}s
     *   ({@link #createMapDeserializer}), and another for POJOs
     *   ({@link #createBeanDeserializer}.
     *   As an additional twist there is also a callback for "Map-like" types,
     *   mostly to make it possible to support Scala Maps (which are NOT JDK
     *   Map compatible).
     *  </li>
     * <li>For Tree Model ({@link com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JsonNode}) properties there is
     *    {@link #createTreeDeserializer}
     * <li>For enumerated types ({@link java.lang.Enum}) there is
     *    {@link #createEnumDeserializer}
     *  </li>
     * <li>For all other types, {@link #createBeanDeserializer} is used.
     * </ul>
