```
  - ignoreExplicitDiscriminatorsForJoinedInheritance
```
boolean ignoreExplicitDiscriminatorsForJoinedInheritance()
```
    Whether explicit discriminator declarations should be ignored for joined subclass style inheritance.
    
    Returns:
    
    true indicates they should be ignored; false indicates they should not be ignored.

    Whether we should do discrimination implicitly joined subclass style inheritance when no discriminator info is provided.
    
    Returns:
    
    true indicates we should do discrimination; false we should not.

    Returns:
    
    true if nationalized character data should be used by default; false otherwise.
