/**
 * This is the main class for using Gson. Gson is typically used by first constructing a
 * Gson instance and then invoking {@link #toJson(Object)} or {@link #fromJson(String, Class)}
 * methods on it. Gson instances are Thread-safe so you can reuse them freely across multiple
 * threads.
 *
 * 

You can create a Gson instance by invoking {@code new Gson()} if the default configuration * is all you need. You can also use {@link GsonBuilder} to build a Gson instance with various * configuration options such as versioning support, pretty printing, custom * {@link JsonSerializer}s, {@link JsonDeserializer}s, and {@link InstanceCreator}s.

* *

Here is an example of how Gson is used for a simple Class: * *

 * Gson gson = new Gson(); // Or use new GsonBuilder().create();
 * MyType target = new MyType();
 * String json = gson.toJson(target); // serializes target to Json
 * MyType target2 = gson.fromJson(json, MyType.class); // deserializes json into target2
 * 

* *

If the object that your are serializing/deserializing is a {@code ParameterizedType} * (i.e. contains at least one type parameter and may be an array) then you must use the * {@link #toJson(Object, Type)} or {@link #fromJson(String, Type)} method. Here is an * example for serializing and deserializing a {@code ParameterizedType}: * *

 * Type listType = new TypeToken<List<String>>() {}.getType();
 * List<String> target = new LinkedList<String>();
 * target.add("blah");
 *
 * Gson gson = new Gson();
 * String json = gson.toJson(target, listType);
 * List<String> target2 = gson.fromJson(json, listType);
 * 

* *

See the Gson User Guide * for a more complete set of examples.

The default configuration has the * following settings: *
    *
  • The JSON generated by toJson methods is in compact representation. This * means that all the unneeded white-space is removed. You can change this behavior with * {@link GsonBuilder#setPrettyPrinting()}.
  • *
  • The generated JSON omits all the fields that are null. Note that nulls in arrays are * kept as is since an array is an ordered list. Moreover, if a field is not null, but its * generated JSON is empty, the field is kept. You can configure Gson to serialize null values * by setting {@link GsonBuilder#serializeNulls()}.
  • *
  • Gson provides default serialization and deserialization for Enums, {@link Map}, * {@link java.net.URL}, {@link java.net.URI}, {@link java.util.Locale}, {@link java.util.Date}, * {@link java.math.BigDecimal}, and {@link java.math.BigInteger} classes. If you would prefer * to change the default representation, you can do so by registering a type adapter through * {@link GsonBuilder#registerTypeAdapter(Type, Object)}.
  • *
  • The default Date format is same as {@link java.text.DateFormat#DEFAULT}. This format * ignores the millisecond portion of the date during serialization. You can change * this by invoking {@link GsonBuilder#setDateFormat(int)} or * {@link GsonBuilder#setDateFormat(String)}.
  • *
  • By default, Gson ignores the {@link com.google.gson.annotations.Expose} annotation. * You can enable Gson to serialize/deserialize only those fields marked with this annotation * through {@link GsonBuilder#excludeFieldsWithoutExposeAnnotation()}.
  • *
  • By default, Gson ignores the {@link com.google.gson.annotations.Since} annotation. You * can enable Gson to use this annotation through {@link GsonBuilder#setVersion(double)}.
  • *
  • The default field naming policy for the output Json is same as in Java. So, a Java class * field versionNumber will be output as "versionNumber" in * Json. The same rules are applied for mapping incoming Json to the Java classes. You can * change this policy through {@link GsonBuilder#setFieldNamingPolicy(FieldNamingPolicy)}.
  • *
  • By default, Gson excludes transient or static fields from * consideration for serialization and deserialization. You can change this behavior through * {@link GsonBuilder#excludeFieldsWithModifiers(int...)}.

This features is typically used when you want to register a type * adapter that does a little bit of work but then delegates further processing to the Gson * default type adapter. Here is an example: *

Let's say we want to write a type adapter that counts the number of objects being read * from or written to JSON. We can achieve this by writing a type adapter factory that uses * the getDelegateAdapter method: *

 {@code
   *  class StatsTypeAdapterFactory implements TypeAdapterFactory {
   *    public int numReads = 0;
   *    public int numWrites = 0;
   *    public  TypeAdapter create(Gson gson, TypeToken type) {
   *      final TypeAdapter delegate = gson.getDelegateAdapter(this, type);
   *      return new TypeAdapter() {
   *        public void write(JsonWriter out, T value) throws IOException {
   *          ++numWrites;
   *          delegate.write(out, value);
   *        }
   *        public T read(JsonReader in) throws IOException {
   *          ++numReads;
   *          return delegate.read(in);
   *        }
   *      };
   *    }
   *  }
   *  } 
* This factory can now be used like this: *
 {@code
   *  StatsTypeAdapterFactory stats = new StatsTypeAdapterFactory();
   *  Gson gson = new GsonBuilder().registerTypeAdapterFactory(stats).create();
   *  // Call gson.toJson() and fromJson methods on objects
   *  System.out.println("Num JSON reads" + stats.numReads);
   *  System.out.println("Num JSON writes" + stats.numWrites);
   *  }
* Note that this call will skip all factories registered before {@code skipPast}. In case of * multiple TypeAdapterFactories registered it is up to the caller of this function to insure * that the order of registration does not prevent this method from reaching a factory they * would expect to reply from this call. * Note that since you can not override type adapter factories for String and Java primitive * types, our stats factory will not count the number of String or primitives that will be * read or written. * @param skipPast The type adapter factory that needs to be skipped while searching for * a matching type adapter. In most cases, you should just pass this (the type adapter * factory from where {@link #getDelegateAdapter} method is being invoked). * @param type Type for which the delegate adapter is being searched for. * * @since 2.2 */ public TypeAdapter getDelegateAdapter(TypeAdapterFactory skipPast, TypeToken type) { // Hack.
