Allow a magic field in a class to specify the default type adapter #564

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
I want to specify the JSON serialization/deserialization semantics within my 
class itself, through a static field. 

class A {
  private static final TypeAdapter<A> GSON_TYPE_ADAPTER = .....
}

The big value is that all users of my class get automatic benefit of type 
adapter, they don't need to remember to register it.

We are reverting these changes since @Adapt is a better solution than a magic 
field.
