Annotation Type HandleClassMetadata

public @interface HandleClassMetadata

Annotated Serializer/Deserializer/Converter with @HandleClassMetadata indicate that they will handle @class metadata during serialization and deserialization. By default it is handled by the library in ClassMetadataConverter. Default converters from DefaultConverters annotated with @HandleClassMetadata do not serialize type information nor do they use it during deserialization. For security reasons class metadata is disabled by default. To enable it GensonBuilder.useClassMetadata(boolean) GensonBuilder.useClassMetadata(true)}
