public class JBossMarshaller
extends AbstractJBossMarshaller
implements StreamingMarshaller

A JBoss Marshalling based marshaller that is oriented at internal, embedded, Infinispan usage. It uses of a custom object table for Infinispan based Externalizer instances that are either internal or user defined.

The reason why this is implemented specially in Infinispan rather than resorting to Java serialization or even the more efficient JBoss serialization is that a lot of efficiency can be gained when a majority of the serialization that occurs has to do with a small set of known types such as GlobalTransaction or ReplicableCommand, and class type information can be replaced with simple magic numbers.

Unknown types (typically user data) falls back to Java serialization.

Method Details

start

public void start()

Description copied from interface: Marshaller

Perform any initialization required before the marshaller is used.

Specified by:

start in interface Marshaller

Specified by:

start in interface StreamingMarshaller

Overrides:

start in class AbstractJBossMarshaller

stop

public void stop()

Description copied from interface: StreamingMarshaller

Stop the marshaller. Implementations of this method should clear up any cached data, or close any resources while marshalling/unmarshalling that have not been already closed.

Specified by:

stop in interface Marshaller

Specified by:

stop in interface StreamingMarshaller

Overrides:

stop in class AbstractJBossMarshaller

isMarshallableCandidate

public boolean isMarshallableCandidate(Object o)

Overrides:

isMarshallableCandidate in class AbstractJBossMarshaller
