Method Detail

newState

TransformationState newState()

Create a state object to share the state between the processor and transformer

resolveType

TypeDescriptor resolveType(TransformationState state)
                           throws java.lang.ClassNotFoundException

Resolves the class to use for the current node

Throws:

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException

getChildren

java.util.Collection<Content> getChildren(Content node)

Returns the children of the node to be transformed. Those are normally the direct children but might differ

newBeanInstance

java.lang.Object newBeanInstance(TransformationState state,
                                 java.util.Map values)
                                 throws Content2BeanException

Instantiates the bean

Throws:

Content2BeanException

initBean

void initBean(TransformationState state,
              java.util.Map values)
              throws Content2BeanException

Called after all properties are set

Throws:

Content2BeanException

setProperty

void setProperty(TransformationState state,
                 PropertyTypeDescriptor descriptor,
                 java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.Object> values)

Set this property on that bean. Allows excluding of properties

convertPropertyValue

java.lang.Object convertPropertyValue(java.lang.Class<?> propertyType,
                                      java.lang.Object value)
                                      throws Content2BeanException

Transforms the simple basic jcr property value objects to more complex properties

Throws:

Content2BeanException

getTypeMapping

TypeMapping getTypeMapping()

The mapping to use
