Serialization of Symfony\Component\Mime\Address about serializer HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi!

JMS Serialiser currently supports not static uninitialised properties, but static uninitialised properties are not supported yet. I guess it would be a simple change in the library, so feel free to create Pull Request with the changes. :)
See:

Best, scyzoryck.

Maybe it'd be best if a serialization handler was provided for the class. The Symfony serializer actually has a normalizer dedicated to handling objects from the symfony/mime component (symfony/symfony#37847) instead of falling back to some default handler, and in the case of the Address class specifically, I imagine that trying to handle its internal details (the encoder and validator) during serialization is not intended.

@scyzoryck, thanks for pointing out the different handling of static vs. regular properties. However, this isn't (and probably shouldn't be?) done by simply adjusting the regular expression. I'm not sure why, but static properties are handled differently as you can see here and here and the exception occurs even before the regular expression is evaluated.

@mbabker, I think that's generally the right approach. In my case, however, I will opt for a different (self written) class and convert that to Symfony\Component\Mime\Address when needed. Thank you nevertheless.
