## Class PropertySerializerMap

- java.lang.Object
- - org.codehaus.jackson.map.ser.impl.PropertySerializerMap

-     public abstract class PropertySerializerMap
      extends Object

  Helper container used for resolving serializers for dynamic (possibly but not necessarily polymorphic) properties: properties whose type is not forced to use dynamic (declared) type and that are not final. If so, serializer to use can only be established once actual value type is known. Since this happens a lot unless static typing is forced (or types are final) this implementation is optimized for efficiency. Instances are immutable; new instances are created with factory methods: this is important to ensure correct multi-threaded access.
  Since:

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### serializerFor

          public abstract JsonSerializer<Object> serializerFor(Class<?> type)

      Main lookup method. Takes a "raw" type since usage is always from place where parameterization is fixed such that there can not be type-parametric variations.
