Converts primitive data objects to their casted values.

Code

public function normalize($object, $format = NULL, array $context = []) {
  $parent = $object

    $serialized_property_names = $this

        ->getValue());
    }
  }

  // Typed data casts NULL objects to their empty variants, so for example
  // the empty string ('') for string type data, or 0 for integer typed data.
  // In a better world with typed data implementing algebraic data types,
  // getCastedValue would return NULL, but as typed data is not aware of real
  // optional values on the primitive level, we implement our own optional
  // value normalization here.
  return $object
    ->getValue() === NULL ? NULL : $object
