Java PropertyAccessor-class And Method Code Example
I apologize, but the PropertyAccessor is not a class from the Apache Commons IO library. It is a part of the Jackson JSON library, which is a separate library for handling JSON data.
PropertyAccessor class is a part of the Jackson databind package and it provides a way to access properties of a Java object during serialization and deserialization.
Here is an example of how to use the PropertyAccessor with Jackson JSON library:
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.SerializationFeature;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.introspect.AnnotatedField;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.introspect.JacksonAnnotationIntrospector;
public class Example {
public static class Person {
private String name;
private int age;
private boolean isActive;
// getters and setters
}
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
Person person = new Person();
person.setName("John Doe");
person.setAge(30);
person.setActive(true);
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
mapper.setAnnotationIntrospector(new JacksonAnnotationIntrospector() {
@Override
public boolean hasIgnoreMarker(AnnotatedField field) {
return field.getName().startsWith("is") && super.hasIgnoreMarker(field);
}
});
mapper.configure(SerializationFeature.FAIL_ON_EMPTY_BEANS, false);
String json = mapper.writeValueAsString(person);
System.out.println(json);
}
}
In this example, mapper.setAnnotationIntrospector is used to set a custom JacksonAnnotationIntrospector that overrides the hasIgnoreMarker method to ignore fields that starts with is prefix.
This way the field isActive will not be included in the serialization.
Note: This is using the Jackson JSON library to serialize the POJO to JSON. You need to have the jackson-databind jar in your classpath for this to work.
Please note that PropertyAccessor is not a class from Apache Commons IO library but from Jackson JSON library.
