## Uses of Interface
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ser.Serializers

Packages that use Serializers
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind: Basic data binding (mapping) functionality that allows for reading JSON content into Java Objects (POJOs) and JSON Trees (`JsonNode`), as well as writing Java Objects and trees as JSON.
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.cfg: Package that contains most of configuration-related classes; exception being couple of most-commonly used configuration things (like Feature enumerations) that are at the main level (`com.fasterxml.jackson.databind`).
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ext: Contains extended support for "external" packages: things that may or may not be present in runtime environment, but that are commonly enough used so that explicit support can be added.
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.module: Package that contains classes and interfaces to help implement custom extension `Module`s (which are registered using `ObjectMapper.registerModule(com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.Module)`.
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ser: Contains implementation classes of serialization part of data binding.

### Uses of Serializers in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind

Methods in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind with parameters of type Serializers
`void` Module.SetupContext.`addKeySerializers(Serializers s)` Method that module can use to register additional serializers to use for handling Map key values (which are separate from value serializers because they must write `JsonToken.FIELD_NAME` instead of String value).
`void` Module.SetupContext.`addSerializers(Serializers s)` Method that module can use to register additional serializers to use for handling types.

### Uses of Serializers in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.cfg

Fields in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.cfg declared as Serializers
`protected Serializers[]` SerializerFactoryConfig.`_additionalKeySerializers` List of providers for additional key serializers, checked before considering default key serialializers.
`protected Serializers[]` SerializerFactoryConfig.`_additionalSerializers` List of providers for additional serializers, checked before considering default basic or bean serialializers.
`protected static Serializers[]` SerializerFactoryConfig.`NO_SERIALIZERS` Constant for empty `Serializers` array (which by definition is stateless and reusable)

Methods in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.cfg that return types with arguments of type Serializers
`Iterable<Serializers>` SerializerFactoryConfig.`keySerializers()`
`Iterable<Serializers>` SerializerFactoryConfig.`serializers()`

Methods in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.cfg with parameters of type Serializers
`SerializerFactoryConfig` SerializerFactoryConfig.`withAdditionalKeySerializers(Serializers additional)`
`SerializerFactoryConfig` SerializerFactoryConfig.`withAdditionalSerializers(Serializers additional)`

Constructors in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.cfg with parameters of type Serializers
Constructor and Description
`SerializerFactoryConfig(Serializers[] allAdditionalSerializers, Serializers[] allAdditionalKeySerializers, BeanSerializerModifier[] modifiers)`
`SerializerFactoryConfig(Serializers[] allAdditionalSerializers, Serializers[] allAdditionalKeySerializers, BeanSerializerModifier[] modifiers)`

### Uses of Serializers in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ext

Classes in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ext that implement Serializers
`class` `CoreXMLSerializers` Provider for serializers of XML types that are part of full JDK 1.5, but that some alleged 1.5 platforms are missing (Android, GAE).

### Uses of Serializers in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.module

Classes in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.module that implement Serializers
`class` `SimpleSerializers` Simple implementation `Serializers` which allows registration of serializers based on raw (type erased class).

### Uses of Serializers in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ser

Classes in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ser that implement Serializers
`static class` `Serializers.Base` Basic `Serializers` implementation that implements all methods but provides no serializers.

Methods in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ser that return types with arguments of type Serializers
`protected abstract Iterable<Serializers>` BasicSerializerFactory.`customSerializers()`
`protected Iterable<Serializers>` BeanSerializerFactory.`customSerializers()`

Methods in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ser with parameters of type Serializers
`abstract SerializerFactory` SerializerFactory.`withAdditionalKeySerializers(Serializers additional)`
`SerializerFactory` BasicSerializerFactory.`withAdditionalKeySerializers(Serializers additional)` Convenience method for creating a new factory instance with an additional key serializer provider.
`abstract SerializerFactory` SerializerFactory.`withAdditionalSerializers(Serializers additional)` Convenience method for creating a new factory instance with additional serializer provider; equivalent to calling withConfig(getConfig().withAdditionalSerializers(additional));
`SerializerFactory` BasicSerializerFactory.`withAdditionalSerializers(Serializers additional)` Convenience method for creating a new factory instance with an additional serializer provider.
