Procedure 6.1. Register the Advanced Externalizer

   <infinispan>
     <global />
   </infinispan>
   

2. Add the serialization element to the global element as follows:

   <infinispan>
     <global>
       <serialization />
     </global>
   </infinispan>
   

3. Add the advancedExternalizers element to add information about the new advanced externalizer as follows:

   <infinispan>
     <global>
       <serialization>
         <advancedExternalizers />
       </serialization>
     </global>
   </infinispan>
   

4. Define the externalizer class using the externalizerClass attribute as follows:

   <infinispan>
       <global>
           <serialization>
               <advancedExternalizers>            
                   <advancedExternalizer externalizerClass="org.infinispan.marshall.AdvancedExternalizerTest$IdViaAnnotationObj$Externalizer"/>
               </advancedExternalizers>
           </serialization>
       </global>
   </infinispan>
   

   Replace the $IdViaAnnotationObj and $AdvancedExternalizer values as required.
