Changes, behavior

Most Wanted features planned

Functionality improvements

  • Fix handling of null Type Id with JsonGenerator.writeTypePrefix() (and databind-level TypeIdSerializer)

Performance improvements

  • More optimized JsonParser.getFloatValue() / JsonParser.getDoubleValue(): avoid String creation when calling FastDoubleParser
    • Issue reported: core#1229: Add char[] versions for NumberInput parseFloat, parseDouble, parseBigInteger
    • possible regression for "Deferred" number parsing

Major focus area(s), implemented

The Focus: Rewrite POJO Property Introspection

  • [https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-databind/issues/4515] -- fully rewritten POJO (including Record) Property Introspection
    • Solved 5 previously failing unit tests:
      • (only for 3.0) #538: Injection when there is cyclic references fails
      • #806: Problem with NamingStrategy, creator methods with implicit names
      • #2977: Incompatible FAIL_ON_MISSING_PRIMITIVE_PROPERTIES and field level @JsonProperty
      • #3241: constructorDetector seems to invalidate defaultSetterInfo for nullability
      • #4119: Exception when deserialization uses a record with a constructor property with access=READ_ONLY
