All Implemented Interfaces:

SerializerFactory

public class ReflectionSerializerFactory
extends Object
implements SerializerFactory

This factory instantiates new serializers of a given class via reflection. The constructors of the given serializerClass must either take an instance of Kryo and an instance of Class as its parameter, take only a Kryo or Class as its only argument or take no arguments. If several of the described constructors are found, the first found constructor is used, in the order as they were just described.
