Interface RpcDecoder

All Superinterfaces:

Serializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

DefaultRpcDecoder, StringToEnumDecoder, StringToNumberDecoder

public interface RpcDecoder extends Serializable

Decoder of RPC method arguments (server-side methods invoked from the client-side).

The client-side argument type and the server-side argument type doesn't have to match. The decoders are applied to be able to handle arguments whose types on the server side and on the client side are different.

Each decoder is checked whether it's may be used to handle the argument value with the required server-side parameter type via the isApplicable(JsonValue, Class) method. Decoder is applied to the received value and required type if it's applicable.

For internal use only. May be renamed or removed in a future release.
