Interface JavaConverter

All Superinterfaces:

Converter, IAdaptable, JpaContextModel, JpaModel, JptResourceTypeReference, Model

All Known Subinterfaces:

JavaBaseEnumeratedConverter, JavaBaseTemporalConverter, JavaLobConverter

public interface JavaConverter
extends Converter

Java converter

Provisional API: This interface is part of an interim API that is still under development and expected to change significantly before reaching stability. It is available at this early stage to solicit feedback from pioneering adopters on the understanding that any code that uses this API will almost certainly be broken (repeatedly) as the API evolves.

Since:

2.1

Nested Class Summary

static class	JavaConverter.AbstractAdapter
static interface	JavaConverter.Adapter This interface allows a convertible mapping to interact with various Java converters via the same protocol.
static interface	JavaConverter.ParentAdapter Interface allowing converters to be used in multiple places (e.g. basic mappings, collection mappings, etc).
