Library for bean conversion
Uses bytecode generation for generating the convert class. Type conversion is done by using InvokeDynamic to retrieve the specific converter.
Development status
Done
- Generate converter class
- creating new instance of target type
- mapping simple types
- Multiple strategies to create beans
- constructor
- interface -> implementation
- supplier
- Static factory methods: getInstance(), newInstance()
- Search for type conversion
- general conversions
- using instance method on the source type
- Groovy like: public Type asType()
- Spring framework like: public Type toType()
- using manually added converters
- throw exception if no converter is found
To do
- Generics support
- Beans with constructor arguments
- Generate mapping
- using code
- using configuration file
Supported type conversions
- string -> string
- primitive -> wrapper
- wrapper -> primitive
- string -> number
