Method Detail

convertImpl

protected java.lang.Object convertImpl(java.lang.Class destinationClass,
                                       java.lang.Object source,
                                       java.util.Locale locale)
                                throws java.lang.Exception

The implementation of the convert method, which may omit the invalid argument checks already performed by this base class. By default, this method creates a new instance of the destinationClass and copies information from the source to the destination. This implementation should be fine as-is for Copiers, but Converters will need to implement this method since they will not be implementing the copy method.

Overrides:

convertImpl in class BaseTransformer

locale - the locale in which the conversion should take place. for converters that are not locale-aware, the local argument can simply be ignored

Throws:

java.lang.Exception

getSourceClassesImpl

protected java.lang.Class[] getSourceClassesImpl()
                                          throws java.lang.Exception

Transformer.getSourceClasses() implementation template method.

Overrides:

getSourceClassesImpl in class BaseReflectorTransformer

Returns:

Class[]

Throws:

java.lang.Exception

getDestinationClassesImpl

protected java.lang.Class[] getDestinationClassesImpl()
                                               throws java.lang.Exception

Transformer.getDestinationClasses() implementation template method.

Overrides:

getDestinationClassesImpl in class BaseReflectorTransformer

Returns:

Class[]

Throws:

java.lang.Exception

getTraverserConverter

public Converter getTraverserConverter()

Get the traverser converter used by this ContainerToTraverserConverter.

Returns:

Converter

setTraverserConverter

public void setTraverserConverter(Converter traverserConverter)

Set the traverser converter used by this ContainerToTraverserConverter.

Parameters:

traverserConverter -
