JsonObjectCreationHandlingAttribute Class

Definition

Determines how deserialization handles object creation for fields or properties.

public ref class JsonObjectCreationHandlingAttribute sealed : System::Text::Json::Serialization::JsonAttribute
[System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.Class | System.AttributeTargets.Field | System.AttributeTargets.Interface | System.AttributeTargets.Property | System.AttributeTargets.Struct, AllowMultiple=false)]
public sealed class JsonObjectCreationHandlingAttribute : System.Text.Json.Serialization.JsonAttribute
[<System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.Class | System.AttributeTargets.Field | System.AttributeTargets.Interface | System.AttributeTargets.Property | System.AttributeTargets.Struct, AllowMultiple=false)>]
type JsonObjectCreationHandlingAttribute = class

Attributes

Remarks

When placed on a field or property, this attribute indicates if the member will be replaced or populated. When default resolvers are used, this attribute maps to ObjectCreationHandling.

When placed on a type with Populate, this attribute indicates that all members that support population will be populated. When default resolvers are used, this attribute maps to PreferredPropertyObjectCreationHandling.

The attribute corresponds only to the preferred values of creation handling for properties when placed on a type. For example, when JsonObjectCreationHandlingAttribute with Populate is placed on a class and a property is not capable of being populated, it will be replaced. That might be true if, for example, the value type doesn't have a setter or the property is of type IEnumerable<T>.

Only the property type is taken into consideration. For example, if the property is of type IEnumerable<T> has and has a run-time value of type List<T>, it won't be populated because IEnumerable<T> is not capable of populating.

Value types require a setter to support population. In such cases, deserialization uses a copy of the property value, which will get assigned back to the setter once finished.
