Method Detail

createRule

SerializationRule createRule(TAnnotation annotation,
                             SerializationClass.Attribute attribute)

Create a rule from an annotation.

addRules

static List<SerializationRule> addRules(SerializationClass.Attribute attr,
                                        boolean onGet,
                                        List<SerializationRule> rules)

Search for annotations on the given attributes, and try to convert them into serialization rules.

getAnnotationToRules

static List<AttributeAnnotationToRuleOnAttribute<?>> getAnnotationToRules(Annotation a)

Search for implementations to convert the given annotation into a rule. It looks first on the annotation class if there is an inner class implementing AttributeAnnotationToRuleOnAttribute. If none is found, it looks into the registry.
