SerializedMessage (Axon Framework 4.10.2 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.axonframework.messaging.AbstractMessage<T>
- - org.axonframework.serialization.SerializedMessage<T>

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Message<T>
```
public class SerializedMessage<T>
extends AbstractMessage<T>
```
A message containing serialized payload data and metadata. A SerializedMessage will deserialize the payload or metadata on demand when getPayload() or getMetaData() is called.
The SerializedMessage guarantees that the payload and metadata will not be deserialized more than once. Messages of this type will not be serialized more than once by the same serializer.

public SerializedMessage(String identifier,
                         SerializedObject<?> serializedPayload,
                         SerializedObject<?> serializedMetaData,
                         Serializer serializer)
```
    Initializes a SerializedMessage with given identifier from the given serialized payload and metadata. The given serializer will be used to deserialize the data.
    
    Parameters:
    
    identifier - the message identifier
    
    serializedPayload - the serialized message payload
    
    serializedMetaData - the serialized message metadata
    
    serializer - the serializer required when the data needs to be deserialized
  - SerializedMessage
```
public SerializedMessage(String identifier,
                         LazyDeserializingObject<T> payload,
                         LazyDeserializingObject<MetaData> metaData)
```
    Initializes a SerializedMessage with given identifier from the given lazily deserializing payload and metadata.
    
    Parameters:
    
    identifier - the message identifier
    
    payload - serialized payload that can be deserialized on demand and never more than once
    
    metaData - serialized metadata that can be deserialized on demand and never more than once
- Method Detail
  - getPayload
```
public T getPayload()
```
    Description copied from interface: Message
    
    Returns the payload of this message. The payload is the application-specific information.
    
    Returns:
    
    the payload of this message
  - getMetaData
```
public MetaData getMetaData()
```
    Description copied from interface: Message
    
    Returns the meta data for this message. This meta data is a collection of key-value pairs, where the key is a String, and the value is a serializable object.
    
    Returns:
    
    the meta data for this message
  - getPayloadType
```
public Class<T> getPayloadType()
```
    Description copied from interface: Message
    
    Returns the type of the payload.
    Is semantically equal to getPayload().getClass(), but allows implementations to optimize by using lazy loading or deserialization.
    
    Returns:
    
    the type of payload.
  - withMetaData
```
protected SerializedMessage<T> withMetaData(MetaData metaData)
```
    Description copied from class: AbstractMessage
    
    Returns a new message instance with the same payload and properties as this message but given metaData.
    
    Specified by:
    
    withMetaData in class AbstractMessage<T>
    
    Parameters:
    
    metaData - The metadata in the new message
    
    Returns:
    
    a copy of this instance with given metadata
  - withMetaData
```
public SerializedMessage<T> withMetaData(@Nonnull
                                         Map<String,?> metaData)
```
    Description copied from interface: Message
    
    Returns a copy of this Message with the given metaData. The payload remains unchanged.
    While the implementation returned may be different than the implementation of this, implementations must take special care in returning the same type of Message (e.g. EventMessage, DomainEventMessage) to prevent errors further downstream.
    
    Specified by:
    
    withMetaData in interface Message<T>
    
    Overrides:
    
    withMetaData in class AbstractMessage<T>
    
    Parameters:
    
    metaData - The new MetaData for the Message
    
    Returns:
    
    a copy of this message with the given MetaData
  - andMetaData
```
public SerializedMessage<T> andMetaData(@Nonnull
                                        Map<String,?> metaData)
```
    Description copied from interface: Message
    
    Returns a copy of this Message with it MetaData merged with the given metaData. The payload remains unchanged.

    Returns:
    
    true if the payload is deserialized, otherwise false
