public class CreatorProperty
extends SettableBeanProperty

This concrete sub-class implements property that is passed via Creator (constructor or static factory method). It is not a full-featured implementation in that its set method should usually not be called for primary mutation -- instead, value must separately passed -- but some aspects are still needed (specifically, injection).

Note on injectable values: unlike with other mutators, where deserializer and injecting are separate, here we treat the two as related things. This is necessary to add proper priority, as well as to simplify coordination.

Field Details

_annotated

protected final AnnotatedParameter _annotated

Placeholder that represents constructor parameter, when it is created from actual constructor. May be null when a synthetic instance is created.

_injectableValue

protected final com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JacksonInject.Value _injectableValue

Id of value to inject, if value injection should be used for this parameter (in addition to, or instead of, regular deserialization).

Since:

2.11

_fallbackSetter

protected SettableBeanProperty _fallbackSetter

In special cases, when implementing "updateValue", we cannot use constructors or factory methods, but have to fall back on using a setter (or mutable field property). If so, this refers to that fallback accessor.

Mutable only to allow setting after construction, but must be strictly set before any use.

Since:

2.3

_creatorIndex

protected final int _creatorIndex

Since:

2.1

_ignorable

protected boolean _ignorable

Marker flag that may have to be set during construction, to indicate that although property may have been constructed and added as a placeholder, it represents something that should be ignored during deserialization. This mostly concerns Creator properties which may not be easily deleted during processing.

Since:

2.9.4
