Java ConstructorDetector-class And Method Code Example
Here is an example of using the ConstructorDetector class from the com.fasterxml.jackson.databind package in the Jackson library for Java:
import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonCreator;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonProperty;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.cfg.ConstructorDetector;
public class Example {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// create a new ObjectMapper
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
// get the ConstructorDetector of the mapper
ConstructorDetector constructorDetector = mapper.getDeserializationConfig().getConstructorDetector();
// example input JSON string
String jsonInput = "{\"name\":\"John\",\"age\":30}";
try {
// use the ObjectMapper to deserialize the input JSON to a Person object
Person person = mapper.readValue(jsonInput, Person.class);
System.out.println("Person: " + person);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
class Person {
private final String name;
private final int age;
@JsonCreator
public Person(@JsonProperty("name") String name, @JsonProperty("age") int age) {
this.name = name;
this.age = age;
}
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public int getAge() {
return age;
}
@Override
public String toString() {
return "Person [name=" + name + ", age=" + age + "]";
}
}
This example uses the ConstructorDetector
class to find and use the constructor annotated with @JsonCreator and @JsonProperty to deserialize JSON input to a Person object. The ConstructorDetector is used to find the @JsonCreator constructor, and the @JsonProperty annotations are used to map the JSON properties to the constructor arguments.
