Class BeanCoder

java.lang.Object

com.ebay.jsoncoder.BeanCoder

public class BeanCoder
extends Object

A coder to convert java class to a Map, List or String representation.

For an array or collection object, it will be encoded as List

For Java Beans, it will be converted into Map, the key is of String type (The property name)

For some simple types such as Date, int, it will be converted into a String.

As this encoder won't store any type information, it will only infer the type from the class. For collections fields, the element type information has to be specified with generic type.
