Here is an * example for serializing and deserialing a {@code ParameterizedType}: * * <pre> * Type listType = new TypeToken<List<String>>() {}.getType(); * List<String> target = new LinkedList<String>(); * target.add("blah"); * * Gson gson = new Gson(); * String json = gson.toJson(target, listType); * List<String> target2 = gson.fromJson(json, listType); * </pre></p> * * <p>See the <a href="https://sites.google.com/site/gson/gson-user-guide">Gson User Guide</a> * for a more complete set of examples.</p> * * @see com.google.gson.reflect.TypeToken * * @author Inderjeet Singh * @author Joel Leitch */ public final class Gson { static final boolean DEFAULT_JSON_NON_EXECUTABLE = false; private static final String JSON_NON_EXECUTABLE_PREFIX = ")]}'\n"; /** * This thread local guards against reentrant calls to getAdapter().

You can change * this by invoking {@link GsonBuilder#setDateFormat(int)} or * {@link GsonBuilder#setDateFormat(String)}. </li> * <li>By default, Gson ignores the {@link com.google.gson.annotations.Expose} annotation. * You can enable Gson to serialize/deserialize only those fields marked with this annotation * through {@link GsonBuilder#excludeFieldsWithoutExposeAnnotation()}. </li> * <li>By default, Gson ignores the {@link com.google.gson.annotations.Since} annotation.
