Class JsonPatchOperation

java.lang.Object
org.apache.juneau.bean.jsonpatch.JsonPatchOperation
Direct Known Subclasses:
AddOp, CopyOp, MoveOp, RemoveOp, ReplaceOp, TestOp
@Marshalled(typePropertyName="op", dictionary={AddOp.class,RemoveOp.class,ReplaceOp.class,MoveOp.class,CopyOp.class,TestOp.class}) public abstract class JsonPatchOperation extends Object
Abstract base for a JSON Patch operation per RFC 6902.

Polymorphic dispatch is wired here via @Marshalled(typePropertyName="op", dictionary={...}): on read, the parser inspects the op member and instantiates the matching concrete subclass; on write, the serializer emits op as the discriminator and the operation's own members alongside.

Not declared sealed - keeping it open lets downstream callers add their own ops if needed (e.g. JSON Patch extensions or vendor-specific test operators) by adding the new subclass to a custom dictionary.
