1092+ Handling Value Objects
1093+ ----------------------
1094+
1095+ Value Objets are difficult to handle because they often require parameters in the constructor. If the input omit one
1096+ of theses parameters the serializer will throw an exception because it can't create the object.
1097+
1098+ To support Value Objects you will need to define the context option ``default_constructor_arguments ``::
1099+
1100+ use Symfony\Component\Serializer\Serializer;
1101+ use Symfony\Component\Serializer\Normalizer\ObjectNormalizer;
1102+
1103+ class MyObj {
1104+ private $foo;
1105+ private $bar;
1106+
1107+ public function __construct($foo, $bar)
1108+ {
1109+ $this->foo = $foo;
1110+ $this->bar = $bar;
1111+ }
1112+ }
1113+
1114+ $normalizer = new ObjectNormalizer($classMetadataFactory);
1115+ $serializer = new Serializer(array($normalizer));
1116+
1117+ $data = $serializer->denormalize(['foo' => 'Hello'], 'MyObj', array('default_constructor_arguments' => array(
1118+ 'MyObj' => array('foo' => '', 'bar' => ''),
1119+ )));
1120+ // $data = new MyObj('Hello', '');
