11 * SPI-level contract for registry of {@link DataObjectSerializer}. The contract is kept between implementation
12 * of {@link DataObjectSerializerImplementation}, Registry provides lookup for serializers to support recursive
13 * serialization of nested {@link DataObject}s.
16 * FIXME: this interface needs to be moved into .spi, but due to classpath funkyness
17 * of OSGi, that change has to be carefully orchestrated to ensure proper imports
18 * exist in all generated packages. One avenue how to achieve that is to move
19 * {@link YangModuleInfo} and modify code generator to add a static field
20 * to all generated classes which will point to the per-model YangModuleInfo
21 * (currently all users of it have to walk the package hierarchy, so that
22 * is an improvement in and of itself).
