Description copied from interface: ObjectFactory

This method is called by the deserializer to construct and bind an object. At the end of this method the object should be fully constructed. ObjectBinder can be used to bind values into the object according to default rules. For simple implementations you won't need to use this, but for more complex or generic objects reusing methods like ObjectBinder.bind(Object, java.lang.reflect.Type) and ObjectBinder.bindIntoCollection(java.util.Collection, java.util.Collection, java.lang.reflect.Type).

Specified by:

instantiate in interface ObjectFactory

Parameters:

context - the object binding context to keep track of where we are in the object graph and used for binding into objects.

value - This is the value from the json object at the current path.

targetType - This is the type pulled from the object introspector. Used for Collections and generic types.

targetClass - concrete class pulled from the configuration of the deserializer.

Returns:

the fully bound object. At the end of this method the object should be fully constructed.
