explicitNulls

@ConfigItem(defaultValue = "true")
open var explicitNulls: Boolean

Specifies whether `null` values should be encoded for nullable properties and must be present in JSON object during decoding.

When this flag is disabled properties with `null` values without default are not encoded; during decoding, the absence of a field value is treated as `null` for nullable properties without a default value.

true by default.
