+               Juneau supports converting arbitrary POJOs to and from 
URL-encoded strings using ultra-efficient serializers and parsers.<br>
+               The serializer converts POJOs directly to URL-encoded strings 
without the need for intermediate DOM objects using a highly-efficient state 
machine.<br>
+               Likewise, the parser creates POJOs directly from URL-encoded 
strings without the need for intermediate DOM objects. 
+       </p>
+       <p>
+               Juneau uses UON (URL-Encoded Object Notation) for representing 
POJOs.  
+               The UON specification can be found <a 
href='doc-files/rfc_uon.txt'>here</a>.
+       </p>
+       <p>
+               Juneau can serialize and parse instances of any of the 
following POJO types:
+       </p>
+       <ul class='spaced-list'>
+               <li>Java primitives and primitive objects (e.g. 
<code>String</code>, <code>Integer</code>, <code>Boolean</code>, 
<code>Float</code>).
+               <li>Java Collections Framework objects (e.g. 
<code>HashSet</code>, <code>TreeMap</code>) containing anything on this list.
+               <li>Multi-dimensional arrays of any type on this list.
+               <li>Java Beans with properties of any type on this list.
+               <li>Classes with standard transformations to and from 
<code>Strings</code> (e.g. classes containing <code>toString()</code>, 
<code>fromString()</code>, <code>valueOf()</code>, 
<code>constructor(String)</code>).
+               <li>Non-serializable classes and properties with associated 
<code>PojoTransforms</code> that convert them to serializable forms.
+       </ul>
+       <p>
+               Refer to <a href='../package-summary.html#PojoCategories' 
class='doclink'>POJO Categories</a> for a complete definition of supported 
POJOs.

+       <h6 class='topic'>Prerequisites</h6>
+       <p>
+               The Juneau URL-encoding serialization and parsing support does 
not require any external prerequisites.  
+               It only requires Java 1.6 or above.

+                       The example shown here is from the Address Book 
resource located in the <code>org.apache.juneau.sample.war</code> 
application.<br>
+                       The POJO model consists of a <code>List</code> of 
<code>Person</code> beans, with each <code>Person</code> containing

+               <p>
+                       When you point a browser at 
<code>/sample/addressBook/people/1</code>, the POJO is rendered as HTML:

+               <p>
+                       By appending 
<code>?Accept=application/x-www-form-urlencoded&plainText=true</code> to the 
URL, you can view the data as a URL-encoded string:

+               The general guidelines on which serializer to use is:
+       </p>
+       <ul class='spaced-list'>
+               <li>Use strict mode serializers if the data types of the value 
are not known on the parsing side, and this
+                       information needs to be preserved during transmission.
+               <li>Use lax mode serializers if the data types of the value are 
known on the parsing side. 
+                       For example, if you're serializing/parsing beans, lax 
mode is usually sufficient since the data types
+                       can be inferred from the bean properties.
+               <li>Use encoding serializers when you're using the results to 
construct a URI yourself, and therefore 
+                       need invalid URI characters to be encoded.
+               <li>Use unencoding serializers when you're creating parameter 
values and passing them off to some other
+                       utility class that will itself encode invalid URI 
characters.
+               <li>Use the readable serializer for debugging purposes.

+       <h6 class='topic'>Notes about examples</h6>
+       <p>
+               The examples shown in this document will use default strict 
settings.<br>
+               For brevity, the examples will use public fields instead of 
getters/setters to reduce the size of the examples.<br>
+               In the real world, you'll typically want to use standard bean 
getters and setters.
+       </p>
+       <p>
+               To start off simple, we'll begin with the following simplified 
bean and build upon it.

+       }
+       </p>
+       <p>
+               The following code shows how to convert this to a URL-encoded 
value:

+       String urlencoded = s.serialize(p);
+       </p>
+       <p>

+               The {@link org.apache.juneau.urlencoding.UrlEncodingSerializer} 
class converts
+               maps and beans into top-level query parameter strings.

+       <p>
+               The general method guidelines are as follows:
+       </p>
+       <ul class='spaced-list'>
+               <li>Use <code>UonSerializer</code> to create individual query 
parameter values.

URL-encoded query strings.
+       </ul>
+       <p>
+               By default, the <code>UrlEncodingSerializer</code> class will 
URL-Encode special characters, and the <code>UonSerializer</code> will NOT 
URL-encode special characters.

+                               are used to customize the behavior of beans 
across the entire framework.<br>
+                       They have various uses:
+               </p>
+               <ul class='spaced-list'>
+                       <li>Hiding bean properties.

+               <p>
+                       For example, we now add a <code>birthDate</code> 
property, and associate a transform with it to transform
+                               it to an ISO8601 date-time string in GMT 
time.<br>
+                       We'll also add a couple of <code>URI</code> 
properties.<br>
+                       By default, <code>Calendars</code> are treated as beans 
by the framework, which is usually not how you want them serialized.<br>
+                       Using transforms, we can convert them to standardized

+                       Now when we rerun the sample code, we'll get the

+               <p>
+                       The URL-encoding serializer is designed to be used 
against POJO tree structures. <br> 
+                       It expects that there not be loops in the POJO model 
(e.g. children with references to parents, etc...).<br>
+                       If you try to serialize models with loops, you will 
usually cause a <code>StackOverflowError</code> to 
+                               be thrown (if {@link 
org.apache.juneau.serializer.SerializerContext#SERIALIZER_maxDepth} is not 
reached first).
+               </p>
+               <p>
+                       If you still want to use the URL-encoding serializer on 
such models, Juneau provides the 
+                               {@link 
org.apache.juneau.serializer.SerializerContext#SERIALIZER_detectRecursions} 
setting.<br>
+                       It tells the serializer to look for instances of an 
object in the current branch of the tree and
+                               skip serialization when a duplicate is 
encountered.
+               </p>
+               <p>
+                       For example, let's make a POJO model out of the 
following classes:
+               </p>
+               <p class='bcode'>
+       <jk>public class</jk> A {
+               <jk>public</jk> B b;

+       
+       <jk>public class</jk> B {
+               <jk>public</jk> C c;
+       }
+       
+       <jk>public class</jk> C {
+               <jk>public</jk> A a;
+       }
+               </p>
+               <p>
+                       Now we create a model with a loop and serialize the 
results.
+               </p>
+               <p class='bcode'>
+       <jc>// Clone an existing serializer and set property for detecting

+               <p>
+                       What we end up with is the following, which does not 
serialize the contents of the <code>c</code> field:

+               <p class='bcode'>

+               <p>
+                       Without recursion detection enabled, this would cause a

+               <p>
+                       Recursion detection introduces a performance penalty of 
around 20%.<br>

+                               In general, the Juneau REST API is considerably 
more flexible than the JAX-RS API, since you can specify and override
+                                       serializers, parsers, properties, 
transforms, converters, guards, etc... at both the class and method levels.<br>
+                               Therefore, the JAX-RS API has the following 
limitations that the Juneau Server API does not:
+                       </p>
+                       <ul class='spaced-list'>
+                               <li>The ability to specify different media type 
providers at the class and method levels.<br> 
+                                       For example, you may want to use 
<code>JsonSerializer</code> with one set of properties on 
+                                               one class, and another instance 
with different properties on another class.<br>
+                                       There is currently no way to define 
this at the class level.<br>
+                                       You can override properties at the 
method level, but this can be cumbersome since it would have to be
+                                               done for all methods in the 
resource.
+                               <li>The Juneau Server API allows you to 
manipulate properties programatically through the {@link 
org.apache.juneau.server.RestResponse#setProperty(String,Object)}
+                                       method, and through the {@link 
org.apache.juneau.server.annotation.Properties} annotation.<br>
+                                       There is no equivalent in JAX-RS.
