Interface BiMapping<T>

Type Parameters:

T - The type whose properties are to be mapped.

All Superinterfaces:

Mapping<T>, ReMapping<T>

public interface BiMapping<T>
extends Mapping<T>, ReMapping<T>

Abstracts a tool which can bidirectionally map properties of an instance of a certain type to and from a Map. In Addition, it can copy the properties from one instance of the type to another.

static class	BiMapping.Builder<T> Defines a builder for the declarative creation of a BiMapping.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
static <T,V> BiMapping.Builder<T>	add(String name, Function<T,? extends V> getter, BiConsumer<T,V> setter) Creates a new BiMapping.Builder and adds a link between name and getter method, which represents a property of the associated type.
static <T> BiMapping<T>	combine(Mapping<? super T> mapping, ReMapping<T> reMapping) Returns a new instance combining a Mapping and a ReMapping.
TargetOperation<T>	copy(T origin) Results in a TargetOperation for a given origin instance of the associated type, which can copy its properties into another instance of that type.

Method Detail

add

static <T,V> BiMapping.Builder<T> add(String name,
                                      Function<T,? extends V> getter,
                                      BiConsumer<T,V> setter)

Creates a new BiMapping.Builder and adds a link between name and getter method, which represents a property of the associated type.

Type Parameters:

T - The type whose properties are to be mapped.

combine

static <T> BiMapping<T> combine(Mapping<? super T> mapping,
                                ReMapping<T> reMapping)

Returns a new instance combining a Mapping and a ReMapping.

WARNING: There are several circumstances that can lead to a result that will not work properly. Therefore, an application of this method should be carefully tested!

copy

TargetOperation<T> copy(T origin)

Results in a TargetOperation for a given origin instance of the associated type, which can copy its properties into another instance of that type.
