Jackson Glossary: SerializationConfig
Package: org.codehaus.jackson.map
Jar: jackson-mapper
Role
SerializationConfig is the main configuration container used during serialization (writing of JSON).
ObjectMapper contains a modifiable copy of configuration. When a value is serialized (using one of "writeValue()" methods, or indirectly through ObjectWriter), an unmodifiable (and non-shared) instance is constructed to be used during serialization. This is done to ensure no changes occur half-way through serialization, and that there is no need to synchronize read access.
Usage
SerializationConfig is not usually constructed by application code; rather, an instance is constructed by ObjectMapper and exposed through serialization methods. Application code can, however, get access to instance used by ObjectMapper via ObjectMapper.getSerializationConfig().
