## Class BeanSerializerBuilder

- java.lang.Object
- - com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ser.BeanSerializerBuilder

-     public class BeanSerializerBuilder
      extends java.lang.Object

  Builder class used for aggregating deserialization information about a POJO, in order to build a `JsonSerializer` for serializing intances. Main reason for using separate builder class is that this makes it easier to make actual serializer class fully immutable.

    Fields
    Modifier and Type | Field and Description
    --- | ---
    `protected AnyGetterWriter` | `_anyGetter` Writer used for "any getter" properties, if any.
    `protected BeanDescription` | `_beanDesc`
    `protected SerializationConfig` | `_config`
    `protected BeanPropertyWriter[]` | `_filteredProperties` Optional array of filtered property writers; if null, no view-based filtering is performed.
    `protected java.lang.Object` | `_filterId` Id of the property filter to use for POJO, if any.
    `protected ObjectIdWriter` | `_objectIdWriter` Object responsible for serializing Object Ids for the handled type, if any.
    `protected java.util.List<BeanPropertyWriter>` | `_properties` Bean properties, in order of serialization
    `protected AnnotatedMember` | `_typeId` Property that is used for type id (and not serialized as regular property)

    Constructors
    Modifier | Constructor and Description
    --- | ---
    `` | `BeanSerializerBuilder(BeanDescription beanDesc)`
    `protected` | `BeanSerializerBuilder(BeanSerializerBuilder src)` Copy-constructor that may be used for sub-classing

  - ### Constructor Detail

    - #### BeanSerializerBuilder

      Note: ideally should be passed in constructor, but for backwards compatibility, needed to add a setter instead
