All Implemented Interfaces:
  JsonFormatVisitable, SchemaAware, ContextualSerializer

    public final class IndexedStringListSerializer

extends StaticListSerializerBase<List<String>>
implements ContextualSerializer

Efficient implement for serializing `List`s that contains Strings and are random-accessible. The only complexity is due to possibility that serializer for `String` may be overridde; because of this, logic is needed to ensure that the default serializer is in use to use fastest mode, or if not, to defer to custom String serializer.

                                              BeanProperty property)
                                       throws JsonMappingException

  Description copied from interface: `ContextualSerializer`
  Method called to see if a different (or differently configured) serializer is needed to serialize values of specified property. Note that instance that this method is called on is typically shared one and as a result method should NOT modify this instance but rather construct and return a new instance. This instance should only be returned as-is, in case it is already suitable for use.

  Specified by:
    `createContextual` in interface `ContextualSerializer`
  Parameters:
    `provider` - Serializer provider to use for accessing config, other serializers
    `property` - Method or field that represents the property (and is used to access value to serialize). Should be available; but there may be cases where caller can not provide it and null is passed instead (in which case impls usually pass 'this' serializer as is)
  Returns:
    Serializer to use for serializing values of specified property; may be this instance or a new instance.
  Throws:
    `JsonMappingException`

### serialize

    public void serialize(List<String> value,
                          JsonGenerator jgen,
                          SerializerProvider provider)
                   throws IOException,
                          JsonGenerationException

  Description copied from class: `JsonSerializer`
  Method that can be called to ask implementation to serialize values of type this serializer handles.

  Specified by:
    `serialize` in class `StdSerializer<List<String>>`
  Parameters:
    `value` - Value to serialize; can not be null.
    `jgen` - Generator used to output resulting Json content
    `provider` - Provider that can be used to get serializers for serializing Objects value contains, if any.
  Throws:
    `IOException`
    `JsonGenerationException`

### serializeWithType

    public void serializeWithType(List<String> value,
                                  JsonGenerator jgen,
                                  SerializerProvider provider,
                                  TypeSerializer typeSer)
                           throws IOException,
                                  JsonGenerationException

  Description copied from class: `JsonSerializer`
  Method that can be called to ask implementation to serialize values of type this serializer handles, using specified type serializer for embedding necessary type information.

  Default implementation will throw `UnsupportedOperationException` to indicate that proper type handling needs to be implemented.

  For simple datatypes written as a single scalar value (JSON String, Number, Boolean), implementation would look like:

        // note: method to call depends on whether this type is serialized as JSON scalar, object or Array!
        typeSer.writeTypePrefixForScalar(value, jgen);
        serialize(value, jgen, provider);
        typeSer.writeTypeSuffixForScalar(value, jgen);

  and implementations for type serialized as JSON Arrays or Objects would differ slightly, as `START-ARRAY>/`END-ARRAY` and `START-OBJECT>/`END-OBJECT` pairs need to be properly handled with respect to serializing of contents.

  ``
  Overrides:
    `serializeWithType` in class `JsonSerializer<List<String>>`
  Parameters:
    `value` - Value to serialize; can not be null.
    `jgen` - Generator used to output resulting Json content
    `provider` - Provider that can be used to get serializers for serializing Objects value contains, if any.
    `typeSer` - Type serializer to use for including type information
  Throws:
    `IOException`
    `JsonGenerationException`
