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.

    /**
     * Interface for classes that handle validation of class-name - based subtypes used
     * with Polymorphic Deserialization: both via "default typing" and explicit
     * {@code @JsonTypeInfo} when using Java Class name as Type Identifier.
     * The main purpose, initially, is to allow pluggable allow lists to avoid
     * security problems that occur with unlimited class names
     * (See <a href="https://medium.com/@cowtowncoder/on-jackson-cves-dont-panic-here-is-what-you-need-to-know-54cd0d6e8062">
     * this article</a> for full explanation).
     *<p>
     * Calls to methods are done as follows:
     * <ol>
     *  <li>When a deserializer is needed for a polymorphic property (including root values) -- either
     *     for explicitly annotated polymorphic type, or "default typing" -- {@link #validateBaseType}
     *     is called to see if validity can be determined for all possible types: if 
     *     {@link Validity#ALLOWED} is returned no futher checks are made for any subtypes; of
     *     {@link Validity#DENIED} is returned, an exception will be thrown to indicate invalid polymorphic
     *     property
     *   </li>
     *  <li>If neither deny nor allowed was returned for property with specific base type, first time
     *     specific Type Id (Class Name) is encountered, method {@link #validateSubClassName} is called
     *     with resolved class name: it may indicate allowed/denied, resulting in either allowed use or
     *     denial with exception
     *   </li>
     *  <li>If no denial/allowance indicated, class name is resolved to actual {@link Class}, and
     *  {@link #validateSubType(MapperConfig, JavaType, JavaType)} is called: if
     *  {@link Validity#ALLOWED} is returned, usage is accepted; otherwise (denied or indeterminate)
     *  usage is not allowed and exception is thrown
     *   </li>
     * </ol>
     *<p>
     * Notes on implementations: implementations must be thread-safe and shareable (usually meaning they
     * are stateless). Determinations for validity are usually effectively cached on per-property
     * basis (by virtue of subtype deserializers being cached by polymorphic deserializers) so
     * caching at validator level is usually not needed. If caching is used, however, it must be done
     * in thread-safe manner as validators are shared within {@link ObjectMapper} as well as possible
     * across mappers (in case of default/standard validator).
     *<p>
     * Also note that it is strongly recommended that all implementations are based on provided
     * abstract base class, {@link PolymorphicTypeValidator.Base} which contains helper methods
     * and default implementations for returning {@link Validity#INDETERMINATE} for validation
     * methods (to allow only overriding relevant methods implementation cares about)
