+Handling Constructor Arguments
+------------------------------
+
+If the constructor of a class defines arguments, as usually happens with
+`Value Objects`_, the serializer won't be able to create the object if some
+arguments are missing. In those cases, use the ``default_constructor_arguments``
+context option::
+
+    use Symfony\Component\Serializer\Serializer;
+    use Symfony\Component\Serializer\Normalizer\ObjectNormalizer;
+
+    class MyObj
+    {
+        private $foo;
+        private $bar;
+
+        public function __construct($foo, $bar)
+        {
+            $this->foo = $foo;
+            $this->bar = $bar;
+        }
+    }
+
+    $normalizer = new ObjectNormalizer($classMetadataFactory);
+    $serializer = new Serializer(array($normalizer));
+
+    $data = $serializer->denormalize(
+        array('foo' => 'Hello'),
+        'MyObj',

+            'MyObj' => array('foo' => '', 'bar' => ''),
+        )
+    ));
+    // $data = new MyObj('Hello', '');
