Method Detail

readDataType

byte readDataType()

Read type of data

Returns:

Type of data as byte

getString

String getString()

Read a string without the string type header.

Returns:

String

readNull

Object readNull()

Read Null data type

Returns:

Null datatype (AS)

readBoolean

Boolean readBoolean()

Read Boolean value

Returns:

Boolean

readNumber

Number readNumber()

Read Number object

Returns:

Number

readString

String readString()

Read String object

Returns:

String

readDate

Date readDate()

Read date object

Returns:

Date

readArray

Object readArray(Deserializer deserializer)

Read an array. This can result in a List or Map being deserialized depending on the array type found.

Returns:

array

readMap

Object readMap(Deserializer deserializer)

Read a map containing key - value pairs. This can result in a List or Map being deserialized depending on the map type found.

Returns:

Map

readObject

Object readObject(Deserializer deserializer)

Read an object.

Returns:

object

readXML

Document readXML()

Read XML document

Returns:

XML DOM document

readCustom

Object readCustom()

Read custom object

Returns:

Custom object

readByteArray

ByteArray readByteArray()

Read ByteArray object.

Returns:

ByteArray object

readReference

Object readReference()

Read reference to Complex Data Type. Objects that are collaborators (properties) of other objects must be stored as references in map of id-reference pairs.

clearReferences

void clearReferences()

Clears all references

readKeyValues

Map<String,Object> readKeyValues(Deserializer deserializer)

Read key - value pairs. This is required for the RecordSet deserializer.
