public interface AttributeContentConverter<T>

Generic interface that represents the Attribute Converter<Object, Object> with its respective Predicate<T>.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
java.lang.Object	convertDataToModel(T attribute, java.lang.Object source) Converts a serializable representation to a property value in case that the predicate defined is true for a given attribute descriptor.
java.lang.Object	convertModelToData(T attribute, java.lang.Object source) Converts a property value to a serializable representation in case that the predicate defined is true for a given attribute descriptor.
java.util.function.Predicate<T>	getConstrainedBy() Returns the predicate that constrains the converter.

Method Detail

getConstrainedBy

java.util.function.Predicate<T> getConstrainedBy()

Returns the predicate that constrains the converter. This predicate will be tested against a given attribute descriptor and if this predicate is true, then it applies the conversion,

Returns:

the predicate related with the converter. Never null.

convertModelToData

java.lang.Object convertModelToData(T attribute,
                                    java.lang.Object source)

Converts a property value to a serializable representation in case that the predicate defined is true for a given attribute descriptor.

Parameters:

attribute - the object describing the source

source - the persistent source described by the attribute that needs be converted to some serializable representation

Returns:

the converter instance. Never null.

convertDataToModel

java.lang.Object convertDataToModel(T attribute,
                                    java.lang.Object source)

Converts a serializable representation to a property value in case that the predicate defined is true for a given attribute descriptor.

Parameters:

attribute - the object describing the source

source - the serializable representation described by the attribute that needs be converted to some persistent property

Returns:

the converter instance. Never null.
