/**
 * This is the main class for using Gson. Gson is typically used by first constructing a Gson
 * instance and then invoking {@link #toJson(Object)} or {@link #fromJson(String, Class)} methods on
 * it. Gson instances are Thread-safe so you can reuse them freely across multiple threads.
 *
 * <p>You can create a Gson instance by invoking {@code new Gson()} if the default configuration is
 * all you need. You can also use {@link GsonBuilder} to build a Gson instance with various
 * configuration options such as versioning support, pretty printing, custom newline, custom indent,
 * custom {@link JsonSerializer}s, {@link JsonDeserializer}s, and {@link InstanceCreator}s.
 *
 * <p>Here is an example of how Gson is used for a simple Class:
 *
 * <pre>
 * Gson gson = new Gson(); // Or use new GsonBuilder().create();
 * MyType target = new MyType();
 * String json = gson.toJson(target); // serializes target to JSON
 * MyType target2 = gson.fromJson(json, MyType.class); // deserializes json into target2
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p>If the type of the object that you are converting is a {@code ParameterizedType} (i.e. has at
 * least one type argument, for example {@code List<MyType>}) then for deserialization you must use
 * a {@code fromJson} method with {@link Type} or {@link TypeToken} parameter to specify the
 * parameterized type. For serialization specifying a {@code Type} or {@code TypeToken} is optional,
 * otherwise Gson will use the runtime type of the object. {@link TypeToken} is a class provided by
 * Gson which helps creating parameterized types. Here is an example showing how this can be done:
 *
 * <pre>
 * TypeToken&lt;List&lt;MyType&gt;&gt; listType = new TypeToken&lt;List&lt;MyType&gt;&gt;() {};
 * List&lt;MyType&gt; target = new LinkedList&lt;MyType&gt;();
 * target.add(new MyType(1, "abc"));
 *
 * Gson gson = new Gson();
 * // For serialization you normally do not have to specify the type, Gson will use
 * // the runtime type of the objects, however you can also specify it explicitly
 * String json = gson.toJson(target, listType.getType());
 *
 * // But for deserialization you have to specify the type
 * List&lt;MyType&gt; target2 = gson.fromJson(json, listType);
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p>See the <a href="https://github.com/google/gson/blob/main/UserGuide.md">Gson User Guide</a>
 * for a more complete set of examples.
 *
 * <h2 id="default-lenient">JSON Strictness handling</h2>
 *
 * For legacy reasons most of the {@code Gson} methods allow JSON data which does not comply with
 * the JSON specification when no explicit {@linkplain Strictness strictness} is set (the default).
 * To specify the strictness of a {@code Gson} instance, you should set it through {@link
 * GsonBuilder#setStrictness(Strictness)}.
 *
 * <p>For older Gson versions, which don't have the strictness mode API, the following workarounds
 * can be used:
 *
 * <h3>Serialization</h3>
 *
 * <ol>
 *   <li>Use {@link #getAdapter(Class)} to obtain the adapter for the type to be serialized
 *   <li>When using an existing {@code JsonWriter}, manually apply the writer settings of this
 *       {@code Gson} instance listed by {@link #newJsonWriter(Writer)}.<br>
 *       Otherwise, when not using an existing {@code JsonWriter}, use {@link
 *       #newJsonWriter(Writer)} to construct one.
 *   <li>Call {@link TypeAdapter#write(JsonWriter, Object)}
 * </ol>
 *
 * <h3>Deserialization</h3>
 *
 * <ol>
 *   <li>Use {@link #getAdapter(Class)} to obtain the adapter for the type to be deserialized
 *   <li>When using an existing {@code JsonReader}, manually apply the reader settings of this
 *       {@code Gson} instance listed by {@link #newJsonReader(Reader)}.<br>
 *       Otherwise, when not using an existing {@code JsonReader}, use {@link
 *       #newJsonReader(Reader)} to construct one.
 *   <li>Call {@link TypeAdapter#read(JsonReader)}
 *   <li>Call {@link JsonReader#peek()} and verify that the result is {@link JsonToken#END_DOCUMENT}
 *       to make sure there is no trailing data
 * </ol>
 *
 * Note that the {@code JsonReader} created this way is only 'legacy strict', it mostly adheres to
 * the JSON specification but allows small deviations. See {@link
 * JsonReader#setStrictness(Strictness)} for details.

  /**
   * Constructs a Gson object with default configuration. The default configuration has the
   * following settings:
   *
   * <ul>
   *   <li>The JSON generated by {@code toJson} methods is in compact representation. This means
   *       that all the unneeded white-space is removed. You can change this behavior with {@link
   *       GsonBuilder#setPrettyPrinting()}.
   *   <li>When the JSON generated contains more than one line, the kind of newline and indent to
   *       use can be configured with {@link GsonBuilder#setFormattingStyle(FormattingStyle)}.
   *   <li>The generated JSON omits all the fields that are null. Note that nulls in arrays are kept
   *       as is since an array is an ordered list. Moreover, if a field is not null, but its
   *       generated JSON is empty, the field is kept. You can configure Gson to serialize null
   *       values by setting {@link GsonBuilder#serializeNulls()}.
   *   <li>Gson provides default serialization and deserialization for Enums, {@link Map}, {@link
   *       java.net.URL}, {@link java.net.URI}, {@link java.util.Locale}, {@link java.util.Date},
   *       {@link java.math.BigDecimal}, and {@link java.math.BigInteger} classes. If you would
   *       prefer to change the default representation, you can do so by registering a type adapter
   *       through {@link GsonBuilder#registerTypeAdapter(Type, Object)}.
   *   <li>The default Date format is same as {@link java.text.DateFormat#DEFAULT}. This format
   *       ignores the millisecond portion of the date during serialization. You can change this by
   *       invoking {@link GsonBuilder#setDateFormat(int, int)} or {@link
   *       GsonBuilder#setDateFormat(String)}.
   *   <li>By default, Gson ignores the {@link com.google.gson.annotations.Expose} annotation. You
   *       can enable Gson to serialize/deserialize only those fields marked with this annotation
   *       through {@link GsonBuilder#excludeFieldsWithoutExposeAnnotation()}.
   *   <li>By default, Gson ignores the {@link com.google.gson.annotations.Since} annotation. You
   *       can enable Gson to use this annotation through {@link GsonBuilder#setVersion(double)}.
   *   <li>The default field naming policy for the output JSON is same as in Java. So, a Java class
   *       field {@code versionNumber} will be output as {@code "versionNumber"} in JSON. The same
   *       rules are applied for mapping incoming JSON to the Java classes. You can change this
   *       policy through {@link GsonBuilder#setFieldNamingPolicy(FieldNamingPolicy)}.
   *   <li>By default, Gson excludes {@code transient} or {@code static} fields from consideration
   *       for serialization and deserialization. You can change this behavior through {@link
   *       GsonBuilder#excludeFieldsWithModifiers(int...)}.
   *   <li>No explicit strictness is set. You can change this by calling {@link
   *       GsonBuilder#setStrictness(Strictness)}.

   * This method is used to get an alternate type adapter for the specified type. This is used to
   * access a type adapter that is overridden by a {@link TypeAdapterFactory} that you may have
   * registered. This feature is typically used when you want to register a type adapter that does a
   * little bit of work but then delegates further processing to the Gson default type adapter. Here
   * is an example:
   *
   * <p>Let's say we want to write a type adapter that counts the number of objects being read from
   * or written to JSON. We can achieve this by writing a type adapter factory that uses the {@code
   * getDelegateAdapter} method:
   *
   * <pre>{@code
   * class StatsTypeAdapterFactory implements TypeAdapterFactory {
   *   public int numReads = 0;
   *   public int numWrites = 0;
   *   public <T> TypeAdapter<T> create(Gson gson, TypeToken<T> type) {
   *     final TypeAdapter<T> delegate = gson.getDelegateAdapter(this, type);
   *     return new TypeAdapter<T>() {
   *       public void write(JsonWriter out, T value) throws IOException {
   *         ++numWrites;
   *         delegate.write(out, value);
   *       }
   *       public T read(JsonReader in) throws IOException {
   *         ++numReads;
   *         return delegate.read(in);
   *       }
   *     };
   *   }
   * }
   * }</pre>
   *
   * This factory can now be used like this:
   *
   * <pre>{@code
   * StatsTypeAdapterFactory stats = new StatsTypeAdapterFactory();
   * Gson gson = new GsonBuilder().registerTypeAdapterFactory(stats).create();
   * // Call gson.toJson() and fromJson methods on objects
   * System.out.println("Num JSON reads: " + stats.numReads);
   * System.out.println("Num JSON writes: " + stats.numWrites);
   * }</pre>
   *
   * Note that this call will skip all factories registered before {@code skipPast}. In case of
   * multiple TypeAdapterFactories registered it is up to the caller of this function to ensure that
   * the order of registration does not prevent this method from reaching a factory they would
   * expect to reply from this call. Note that since you can not override the type adapter factories
   * for some types, see {@link GsonBuilder#registerTypeAdapter(Type, Object)}, our stats factory
   * will not count the number of instances of those types that will be read or written.
   *
   * <p>If {@code skipPast} is a factory which has neither been registered on the {@link
   * GsonBuilder} nor specified with the {@link JsonAdapter @JsonAdapter} annotation on a class,
   * then this method behaves as if {@link #getAdapter(TypeToken)} had been called. This also means
   * that for fields with {@code @JsonAdapter} annotation this method behaves normally like {@code
   * getAdapter} (except for corner cases where a custom {@link InstanceCreator} is used to create
   * an instance of the factory).
   *
   * @param skipPast The type adapter factory that needs to be skipped while searching for a
   *     matching type adapter. In most cases, you should just pass <i>this</i> (the type adapter
   *     factory from where {@code getDelegateAdapter} method is being invoked).
   * @param type Type for which the delegate adapter is being searched for.
