SUMMARY: NESTED | FIELD | CONSTR | METHOD | DETAIL: FIELD | CONSTR | METHOD |
An interface for converting types from a string to some other type.
Method Summary | |
java.lang.Object |
convertInbound(java.lang.Class paramType,
InboundVariable data,
InboundContext inctx)
Attempt to coerce the data from a string to an Object. |
java.lang.String |
convertOutbound(java.lang.Object data,
java.lang.String varName,
OutboundContext outctx)
Return a javascript string that defines the variable named varName to have the contents of the converted object data. |
void |
setConverterManager(ConverterManager config)
If we are a compound converter that farms out part of the conversion to other converters then you farm the conversion out via a configuration. |
Method Detail |
public void setConverterManager(ConverterManager config)
config
- The confiuration objectpublic java.lang.Object convertInbound(java.lang.Class paramType, InboundVariable data, InboundContext inctx) throws ConversionException
paramType
- The type to convert todata
- The data to convertinctx
- The map of data that we are working on
ConversionException
- If the conversion failed for some reasonpublic java.lang.String convertOutbound(java.lang.Object data, java.lang.String varName, OutboundContext outctx) throws ConversionException
convertInbound()
any failures in converting
data on the way out should not stop processing, and we should carry on
if we can. Failures are probably down to some misconfiguration so as much
information about the error as can be safely generated to console logs is
good. In other words if you need to loop in outbound conversion then it
might be a good idea to catch issues inside the loop, log, and carry on.
data
- The data to convertvarName
- The variable to defineoutctx
- Objects already converted and the results
ConversionException
- If the conversion failed for some reason
