Package com.flowingcode.vaadin.jsonmigration

Class JsonMigration

java.lang.Object

com.flowingcode.vaadin.jsonmigration.JsonMigration

public class JsonMigration
extends Object

Provides a compatibility layer for JSON handling to abstract away breaking changes introduced in Vaadin version 25.

This utility class detects the runtime version and uses version-specific helpers to ensure that code calling its methods does not need to be aware of underlying Vaadin API changes.

Method Details

convertToJsonValue

public static elemental.json.JsonValue convertToJsonValue(Object object)

Converts a given Java object into a JsonValue.

This method delegates the conversion to a version-specific helper to handle any differences in the serialization process.

Parameters:

object - the object to convert

Returns:

the JsonValue representation of the object

setPropertyJson

public static void setPropertyJson(Element element,
 String name,
 elemental.json.JsonValue json)

Sets a JSON-valued property on a given Element, transparently handling version-specific method signatures.

This method uses reflection to call the appropriate setPropertyJson method on the Element class, which has a different signature for its JSON parameter in library versions before and after Vaadin 25.

Parameters:

element - the Element on which to set the property

name - the name of the property to set

json - the JsonValue to be set as the property's value

getEventData

public static elemental.json.JsonObject getEventData(DomEvent event)

Gets additional data related to the event.

Parameters:

event - the DomEvent from which to retrieve the data

Returns:

a JSON object containing event data, never null
