Method Detail

findBinding

<S,T> Binding<S,T> findBinding(ConverterKey<S,T> key)

Resolve a Binding with the given source and target class. A binding unifies a marshaller and an unmarshaller and both must be available to resolve a binding. The source class is considered the owning class of the binding. The source can be marshalled into the target class. Similarly, the target can be unmarshalled to produce an instance of the source type.

Type Parameters:

S - The Source type

T - The Target type

Parameters:

key - The converter key

Returns:

The found Binding

findMarshaller

<S,T> ToMarshaller<S,T> findMarshaller(ConverterKey<S,T> key)

Resolve a Marshaller with the given source and target class. The marshaller is used as follows: Instances of the source can be marshalled into the target class.

Type Parameters:

S - The Source type

T - The Target type

Parameters:

key - The converter key

Returns:

The found Marshaller

findConverter

<S,T> Converter<S,T> findConverter(ConverterKey<S,T> key)

Resolve a Converter with the given input and output classes. Instances of the input class can be converted into instances of the output class

Type Parameters:

S - The Source type

T - The Target type

Parameters:

key - The converter key

Returns:

The found Converter

findUnmarshaller

<S,T> FromUnmarshaller<S,T> findUnmarshaller(ConverterKey<S,T> key)

Resolve an UnMarshaller with the given source and target class. The unmarshaller is used as follows: Instances of the source can be marshalled into the target class.

Type Parameters:

S - The Source type

T - The Target type

Parameters:

key - The converter key

Returns:

The found Unmarshaller

findBinding

<S,T> Binding<S,T> findBinding(Class<S> source,
                               Class<T> target)

Resolve a Binding with the given source and target class. A binding unifies a marshaller and an unmarshaller and both must be available to resolve a binding.
The source class is considered the owning class of the binding. The source can be marshalled into the target class. Similarly, the target can be unmarshalled to produce an instance of the source type.

Type Parameters:

S - The Source type

T - The Target type

Parameters:

source - The source (owning) class

target - The target (foreign) class

Returns:

The found Binding

findMarshaller
