## Class MappingJsonFactory

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    Versioned

      public class MappingJsonFactory
      extends JsonFactory

  Sub-class of `JsonFactory` that will create a proper `ObjectCodec` to allow seamless conversions between Json content and Java objects (POJOs). The only addition to regular `JsonFactory` currently is that `ObjectMapper` is constructed and passed as the codec to use.

  - ### Method Summary

    Methods
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `ObjectMapper` | `getCodec()` We'll override the method to return more specific type; co-variance helps here
    `String` | `getFormatName()` Sub-classes need to override this method (as of 1.8)
    `MatchStrength` | `hasFormat(InputAccessor acc)` Sub-classes need to override this method (as of 1.8)
