Class MappingJacksonMessageConverter

java.lang.Object
  org.springframework.jms.support.converter.MappingJacksonMessageConverter

All Implemented Interfaces:

MessageConverter

public class MappingJacksonMessageConverter
extends Object
implements MessageConverter

Message converter that uses the Jackson library to convert messages to and from JSON. Maps an object to a BytesMessage, or to a TextMessage if the targetType is set to MessageType.TEXT. Converts from a TextMessage or BytesMessage to an object.

Since:

3.1

Field Detail

DEFAULT_ENCODING

public static final String DEFAULT_ENCODING

The default encoding used for writing to text messages: UTF-8.

Constructor Detail

MappingJacksonMessageConverter

public MappingJacksonMessageConverter()

Method Detail

setObjectMapper

public void setObjectMapper(org.codehaus.jackson.map.ObjectMapper objectMapper)

Specify the ObjectMapper to use instead of using the default.

setTargetType

public void setTargetType(MessageType targetType)

Specify whether toMessage(Object, Session) should marshal to a BytesMessage or a TextMessage.

The default is MessageType.BYTES, i.e. this converter marshals to a BytesMessage. Note that the default version of this converter supports MessageType.BYTES and MessageType.TEXT only.

See Also:

MessageType.BYTES, MessageType.TEXT

setEncoding

public void setEncoding(String encoding)

Specify the encoding to use when converting to and from text-based message body content. The default encoding will be "UTF-8".

When reading from a a text-based message, an encoding may have been suggested through a special JMS property which will then be preferred over the encoding set on this MessageConverter instance.

See Also:

setEncodingPropertyName(java.lang.String)

setEncodingPropertyName

public void setEncodingPropertyName(String encodingPropertyName)

Specify the name of the JMS message property that carries the encoding from bytes to String and back is BytesMessage is used during the conversion process.

Default is none. Setting this property is optional; if not set, UTF-8 will be used for decoding any incoming bytes message.

See Also:

setEncoding(java.lang.String)

setTypeIdPropertyName

public void setTypeIdPropertyName(String typeIdPropertyName)

Specify the name of the JMS message property that carries the type id for the contained object: either a mapped id value or a raw Java class name.

Default is none. NOTE: This property needs to be set in order to allow for converting from an incoming message to a Java object.

See Also:

setTypeIdMappings(java.util.Map>)

setTypeIdMappings

public void setTypeIdMappings(Map<String,Class<?>> typeIdMappings)

Specify mappings from type ids to Java classes, if desired. This allows for synthetic ids in the type id message property, instead of transferring Java class names.

Default is no custom mappings, i.e. transferring raw Java class names.

Parameters:

typeIdMappings - a Map with type id values as keys and Java classes as values

Template method that allows for custom message mapping. Invoked when setTargetType(org.springframework.jms.support.converter.MessageType) is not MessageType.TEXT or MessageType.BYTES.

                           throws JMSException

Set a type id for the given payload object on the given JMS Message.

The default implementation consults the configured type id mapping and sets the resulting value (either a mapped id or the raw Java class name) into the configured type id message property.

Parameters:

object - the payload object to set a type id for

message - the JMS Message to set the type id on

Throws:

JMSException - if thrown by JMS methods

Convert a TextMessage to a Java Object with the specified type.

Parameters:

message - the input message

targetJavaType - the target type

Returns:

the message converted to an object

Throws:

JMSException - if thrown by JMS

IOException - in case of I/O errors

convertFromBytesMessage

protected Object convertFromBytesMessage(BytesMessage message,

Convert a BytesMessage to a Java Object with the specified type.

Parameters:

message - the input message

targetJavaType - the target type

Returns:

the message converted to an object

Throws:

convertFromMessage

protected Object convertFromMessage(Message message,
                                    org.codehaus.jackson.type.JavaType targetJavaType)
                             throws JMSException,
                                    IOException

Template method that allows for custom message mapping. Invoked when setTargetType(org.springframework.jms.support.converter.MessageType) is not MessageType.TEXT or MessageType.BYTES.

The default implementation throws an IllegalArgumentException.

Parameters:

message - the input message

targetJavaType - the target type

Returns:

the message converted to an object

Throws:

JMSException - if thrown by JMS

IOException - in case of I/O errors

getJavaTypeForMessage

protected org.codehaus.jackson.type.JavaType getJavaTypeForMessage(Message message)
                                                            throws JMSException

Determine a Jackson JavaType for the given JMS Message, typically parsing a type id message property.

The default implementation parses the configured type id property name and consults the configured type id mapping. This can be overridden with a different strategy, e.g. doing some heuristics based on message origin.

Parameters:

object - the payload object to set a type id for

message - the JMS Message to set the type id on

Throws:

JMSException - if thrown by JMS methods
