## Class DataFormatReaders

- java.lang.Object
- - com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.deser.DataFormatReaders

-     public class DataFormatReaders
      extends java.lang.Object

  Alternative to `DataFormatDetector` that needs to be used when using data-binding.
  Since:
    2.1

- - ### Nested Class Summary

    Nested Classes
    Modifier and Type | Class and Description
    --- | ---
    `protected class` | `DataFormatReaders.AccessorForReader` We need sub-class here as well, to be able to access efficiently.
    `static class` | `DataFormatReaders.Match` Result class, similar to `DataFormatMatcher`

  - ### Field Summary

    Fields
    Modifier and Type | Field and Description
    --- | ---
    `protected int` | `_maxInputLookahead` Maximum number of leading bytes of the input that we can read to determine data format.
    `protected com.fasterxml.jackson.core.format.MatchStrength` | `_minimalMatch` Strength of minimal match we accept as the answer, unless better matches are found.
    `protected com.fasterxml.jackson.core.format.MatchStrength` | `_optimalMatch` Strength of match we consider to be good enough to be used without checking any other formats.
    `protected ObjectReader[]` | `_readers` Ordered list of readers which both represent data formats to detect (in precedence order, starting with highest) and contain factories used for actual detection.
    `static int` | `DEFAULT_MAX_INPUT_LOOKAHEAD` By default we will look ahead at most 64 bytes; in most cases, much less (4 bytes or so) is needed, but we will allow bit more leniency to support data formats that need more complex heuristics.

    - #### DEFAULT_MAX_INPUT_LOOKAHEAD

          public static final int DEFAULT_MAX_INPUT_LOOKAHEAD

      By default we will look ahead at most 64 bytes; in most cases, much less (4 bytes or so) is needed, but we will allow bit more leniency to support data formats that need more complex heuristics.
