public interface JsonPolymorphicTypeMap implements Annotation

Beta
Declares that the data type enclosing this field is polymorphic, and that the value of this field in a heterogeneous JSON schema will determine what type the data should be parsed into.

A data structure must have no more than one field with this annotation present. The annotated field's type must be considered "primitive" by Data#isPrimitive(Type). The field's value will be compared against the TypeDef#key() using Object#toString().
