Class DefaultCasterChain.ConvertingSerializedObject<I,O>

java.lang.Object

io.fluxcapacitor.javaclient.common.serialization.casting.DefaultCasterChain.ConvertingSerializedObject<I,O>

Type Parameters:

I - the input data type before conversion

O - the output data type after conversion

All Implemented Interfaces:

SerializedObject<O>, HasSource<SerializedObject<I>>

Enclosing class:

DefaultCasterChain<T,S extends SerializedObject<T>>

protected static class DefaultCasterChain.ConvertingSerializedObject<I,O>
extends Object
implements SerializedObject<O>, HasSource<SerializedObject<I>>

A SerializedObject wrapper that applies a Converter to translate data from one format to another.

This class enables the DefaultCasterChain to perform casting across multiple intermediate formats, often used when bridging serialization formats (e.g., JSON → binary, or type-safe objects → byte arrays).

When the actual converted Data is requested, the wrapped converter will be applied lazily and memoized. The result can be accessed via data() or extracted using getResult().

ConvertingSerializedObject

public ConvertingSerializedObject(SerializedObject<I> source,
 Converter<I,O> converter)

Constructs a ConvertingSerializedObject with deferred conversion.

Parameters:

source - the original serialized object

converter - the converter to apply

Method Details

data

public Data<O> data()

Description copied from interface: SerializedObject

Returns the serialized payload held by this object.

Specified by:

data in interface SerializedObject<I>

Returns:

the serialized payload

getType

public String getType()

Description copied from interface: SerializedObject

Returns the type identifier for the serialized payload.

Specified by:

getType in interface SerializedObject<I>

getRevision

public int getRevision()

Description copied from interface: SerializedObject

Returns the revision of the serialized object.

Specified by:

getRevision in interface SerializedObject<I>

getResult

public SerializedObject<?> getResult()

Returns the final SerializedObject after conversion.

If no transformation occurred (i.e., the result equals the source), the source object is returned directly.

Returns:

a converted or original serialized object
