    Methods in java.beans with parameters of type Encoder
    Modifier and Type | Method | Description
    --- | --- | ---
    `protected void` | DefaultPersistenceDelegate.`initialize​(Class<?> type, Object oldInstance, Object newInstance, Encoder out)` | This default implementation of the `initialize` method assumes all state held in objects of this type is exposed via the matching pairs of "setter" and "getter" methods in the order they are returned by the Introspector.
    `protected void` | PersistenceDelegate.`initialize​(Class<?> type, Object oldInstance, Object newInstance, Encoder out)` | Produce a series of statements with side effects on `newInstance` so that the new instance becomes equivalent to `oldInstance`.
    `protected Expression` | DefaultPersistenceDelegate.`instantiate​(Object oldInstance, Encoder out)` | This default implementation of the `instantiate` method returns an expression containing the predefined method name "new" which denotes a call to a constructor with the arguments as specified in the `DefaultPersistenceDelegate`'s constructor.
    `protected abstract Expression` | PersistenceDelegate.`instantiate​(Object oldInstance, Encoder out)` | Returns an expression whose value is `oldInstance`.
    `void` | PersistenceDelegate.`writeObject​(Object oldInstance, Encoder out)` | The `writeObject` is a single entry point to the persistence and is used by an `Encoder` in the traditional mode of delegation.
