Interface MessageTranslator<P extends Message<?>>

Type Parameters:
P - The type of the translated message's payload
All Superinterfaces:
Function<Message<?>,P>
All Known Implementing Classes:
TextMessageTranslator
Functional Interface:
This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.
@FunctionalInterface public interface MessageTranslator<P extends Message<?>> extends Function<Message<?>,P>
Translates any Message<?> into a Message with payload-type P by translating the message's payload into the specified target-type payload.

The Message Translator is the messaging equivalent of the Adapter pattern described in [GoF]. An adapter converts the interface of a component into a another interface so it can be used in a different context.
