Constructor Details

StringCodec

public StringCodec()

Constructs a StringCodec with a String representation.

Method Details

getRepresentation

public BsonType getRepresentation()

Description copied from interface: RepresentationConfigurable

Gets the BsonRepresentation.

Specified by:

getRepresentation in interface RepresentationConfigurable<String>

Returns:

the BsonRepresentation

withRepresentation

public Codec<String> withRepresentation(BsonType representation)

Description copied from interface: RepresentationConfigurable

Returns an immutable codec with the given representation. If the provided representation is not supported an exception will be thrown.

Specified by:

withRepresentation in interface RepresentationConfigurable<String>

Parameters:

representation - the BsonRepresentation.

Returns:

a new Codec with the correct representation.

encode

public void encode(BsonWriter writer,
 String value,
 EncoderContext encoderContext)

Description copied from interface: Encoder

Encode an instance of the type parameter T into a BSON value.

Specified by:

encode in interface Encoder<String>

Parameters:

writer - the BSON writer to encode into

value - the value to encode

encoderContext - the encoder context

decode

public String decode(BsonReader reader,
 DecoderContext decoderContext)

Description copied from interface: Decoder

Decodes a BSON value from the given reader into an instance of the type parameter T.

Specified by:

decode in interface Decoder<String>

Parameters:

reader - the BSON reader

decoderContext - the decoder context

Returns:

an instance of the type parameter T.

getEncoderClass

public Class<String> getEncoderClass()

Description copied from interface: Encoder

Returns the Class instance that this encodes. This is necessary because Java does not reify generic types.

Specified by:

getEncoderClass in interface Encoder<String>

Returns:

the Class instance that this encodes.
