Class AbstractBidirectionalStrategyMapper<A,B>

java.lang.Object
  be.idamf.sofa.mapper.AbstractMapper<A,B>
      be.idamf.sofa.mapper.AbstractBidirectionalMapper<A,B>
          be.idamf.sofa.mapper.AbstractBidirectionalStrategyMapper<A,B>

Type Parameters:

A - The object type A

B - The object type B

All Implemented Interfaces:

BidirectionalMapper<A,B>, Mapper<A,B>, StrategyMapper<A,B>

public abstract class AbstractBidirectionalStrategyMapper<A,B>
extends AbstractBidirectionalMapper<A,B>
implements StrategyMapper<A,B>

Abstract mapper class, implementing the B to A mapping methods as delegation to the strategy. Implementing classes must provide a default StrategyMapper. This strategy will be used when calling BidirectionalMapper.mapBToA(Object).

Constructor Summary

protected

AbstractBidirectionalStrategyMapper(MapperStrategy<A,B> defaultStrategy) This constructor foreces implementation to always pass in a default strategy, so it can be used when BidirectionalMapper.mapBToA(Object) is called.

Method Summary

A	mapBToA(B b) Map an object of type B to an object of type A.
A	mapBToA(B b, MapperStrategy<A,B> strategy) Map an object of type B to an object of type A, using a given strategy.
<C extends Collection<A>> C	mapCollectionOfBToCollectionOfA(Collection<B> collectionOfB, C emptyMutableCollectionOfA, MapperStrategy<A,B> strategy) Maps a collection of objects of type B to a collection of objects of type A, using a strategy.
