/**
* A strategy (or policy) definition that is used to decide whether or not a field or top-level
* class should be serialized or deserialized as part of the JSON output/input. For serialization,
* if the {@link #shouldSkipClass(Class)} method returns true then that class or field type
* will not be part of the JSON output. For deserialization, if {@link #shouldSkipClass(Class)}
* returns true, then it will not be set as part of the Java object structure.
*
* The following are a few examples that shows how you can use this exclusion mechanism.
*
*
Exclude fields and objects based on a particular class type:
*
* private static class SpecificClassExclusionStrategy implements ExclusionStrategy {
* private final Class<?> excludedThisClass;
*
* public SpecificClassExclusionStrategy(Class<?> excludedThisClass) {
* this.excludedThisClass = excludedThisClass;
* }
*
* public boolean shouldSkipClass(Class<?> clazz) {
* return excludedThisClass.equals(clazz);
* }
*
* public boolean shouldSkipField(FieldAttributes f) {
* return excludedThisClass.equals(f.getDeclaredClass());
* }
* }
*
*
* Excludes fields and objects based on a particular annotation:
*
* public @interface FooAnnotation {
* // some implementation here
* }
*
* // Excludes any field (or class) that is tagged with an "@FooAnnotation"
* private static class FooAnnotationExclusionStrategy implements ExclusionStrategy {
* public boolean shouldSkipClass(Class<?> clazz) {
* return clazz.getAnnotation(FooAnnotation.class) != null;
* }
*
* public boolean shouldSkipField(FieldAttributes f) {
* return f.getAnnotation(FooAnnotation.class) != null;
* }
* }
*
*
* Now if you want to configure {@code Gson} to use a user defined exclusion strategy, then
* the {@code GsonBuilder} is required. The following is an example of how you can use the
* {@code GsonBuilder} to configure Gson to use one of the above sample:
*
* ExclusionStrategy excludeStrings = new UserDefinedExclusionStrategy(String.class);
* Gson gson = new GsonBuilder()
* .setExclusionStrategies(excludeStrings)
* .create();
*
*
* For certain model classes, you may only want to serialize a field, but exclude it for
* deserialization. To do that, you can write an {@code ExclusionStrategy} as per normal;
* however, you would register it with the
* {@link GsonBuilder#addDeserializationExclusionStrategy(ExclusionStrategy)} method.
* For example:
*
* ExclusionStrategy excludeStrings = new UserDefinedExclusionStrategy(String.class);
* Gson gson = new GsonBuilder()
* .addDeserializationExclusionStrategy(excludeStrings)
* .create();
