Method Detail

setMapperFactory

void setMapperFactory(MapperFactory mapperFactory)

appliesTo

boolean appliesTo(FieldMap fieldMap)

Tests whether this Specification applies to the specified MappedTypePair

Parameters:

fieldMap -

typePair -

Returns:

true if this specification applies to the given MappedTypePair

generateEqualityTestCode

String generateEqualityTestCode(FieldMap fieldMap,
                                VariableRef source,
                                VariableRef destination,
                                SourceCodeContext code)

Generates code for a boolean equality test between the two variable types, where are potentially unrelated.

Parameters:

source -

destination -

inverseProperty -

code -

Returns:

the code snippet which represents a true|false statement describing whether the two types should be considered 'equal'

generateMappingCode

String generateMappingCode(FieldMap fieldMap,
                           VariableRef source,
                           VariableRef destination,
                           SourceCodeContext code)

Generates code to map the provided field map

Parameters:

fieldMap - the fieldMap for which source code should be generated

source - a convenience wrapper around the source field which can be used facilitate code generation

destination - a convenience wrapper around the destination field which can be used facilitate code generation

inverseProperty -

code -

Returns:

the code snippet which represents mapping from the source to destination property
