TypeMapping

```
public interface TypeMapping
```
The javax.xml.rpc.encoding.TypeMapping is the base interface for the representation of a type mapping. A TypeMapping implementation class may support one or more encoding styles.
For its supported encoding styles, a TypeMapping instance maintains a set of tuples of the type {Java type, SerializerFactory, DeserializerFactory, XML type}.

- Method Detail
  - getSupportedEncodings
```
java.lang.String[] getSupportedEncodings()
```
    Returns the encodingStyle URIs (as String[]) supported by this TypeMapping instance. A TypeMapping that contains only encoding style independent serializers and deserializers returns null from this method.
    
    Returns:
    
    Array of encodingStyle URIs for the supported encoding styles
  - setSupportedEncodings
```
void setSupportedEncodings(java.lang.String[] encodingStyleURIs)
```
    Sets the encodingStyle URIs supported by this TypeMapping instance. A TypeMapping that contains only encoding independent serializers and deserializers requires null as the parameter for this method.
    
    Parameters:
    
    encodingStyleURIs - Array of encodingStyle URIs for the supported encoding styles
  - isRegistered
```
boolean isRegistered(java.lang.Class javaType,
                     javax.xml.namespace.QName xmlType)
```
    Checks whether or not type mapping between specified XML type and Java type is registered.
    
    Parameters:
    
    javaType - Class of the Java type
    
    xmlType - Qualified name of the XML data type
    
    Returns:
    
    boolean; true if type mapping between the specified XML type and Java type is registered; otherwise false
  - register
```
void register(java.lang.Class javaType,
              javax.xml.namespace.QName xmlType,
              SerializerFactory sf,
              DeserializerFactory dsf)
```
    Registers SerializerFactory and DeserializerFactory for a specific type mapping between an XML type and Java type. This method replaces any existing registered SerializerFactory DeserializerFactory instances.
    
    Parameters:
    
    javaType - Class of the Java type
    
    xmlType - Qualified name of the XML data type
    
    sf - SerializerFactory
    
    dsf - DeserializerFactory
    
    Throws:
    
    JAXRPCException - If any error during the registration
  - getSerializer
```
SerializerFactory getSerializer(java.lang.Class javaType,
                                javax.xml.namespace.QName xmlType)
```
    Gets the SerializerFactory registered for the specified pair of Java type and XML data type.
    
    Parameters:
    
    javaType - Class of the Java type
    
    xmlType - Qualified name of the XML data type
    
    Returns:
    
    Registered SerializerFactory or null if there is no registered factory
  - getDeserializer
```
DeserializerFactory getDeserializer(java.lang.Class javaType,
                                    javax.xml.namespace.QName xmlType)
```
    Gets the DeserializerFactory registered for the specified pair of Java type and XML data type.
    
    Parameters:
    
    javaType - Class of the Java type
    
    xmlType - Qualified name of the XML data type
    
    Returns:
    
    Registered DeserializerFactory or null if there is no registered factory
  - removeSerializer
```
void removeSerializer(java.lang.Class javaType,
                      javax.xml.namespace.QName xmlType)
```
    Removes the SerializerFactory registered for the specified pair of Java type and XML data type.
    
    Parameters:
    
    javaType - class to remove the Serializer for
    
    xmlType - Qualified Name of the XML type
    
    Throws:
    
    JAXRPCException - If there is error in removing the registered SerializerFactory
  - removeDeserializer
```
void removeDeserializer(java.lang.Class javaType,
                        javax.xml.namespace.QName xmlType)
```
    Removes the DeserializerFactory registered for the specified pair of Java type and XML data type.
    
    Parameters:
    
    javaType - class to remove the Deserializer for
    
    xmlType - Qualified Name of the XML type
    
    Throws:
    
    JAXRPCException - If there is error in removing the registered DeserializerFactory
