Method Detail

addSerializer

public void addSerializer(ISerializer serializer)

Add a serializer instance to the registry.

Parameters:

serializer - The GraphML serializer to add.

addDeserializer

public void addDeserializer(IDeserializer deserializer)

Add a deserializer to the registry.

Parameters:

deserializer - The GraphML deserializer to add.

getSerializer

public ISerializer getSerializer(GraphMLWriteContext context,
                                 Object subject)

Get a serializer instance that is able to serialize the given instance.

Parameters:

context - The current write context.

subject - The instance that is to be serialized.

Returns:
