Annotation Details

Below each annotation described in detail.
##JMap

public @interface JMap {
	String value() default Constants.DEFAULT_FIELD_VALUE;
	String[] attributes() default {};
	Class<?>[] classes() default {};
}

• value represents the target field name.
• attributes allows the definition of more than one target field name.
• classes identifies the classes of the attributes. The relationship between the attribute and the class is given by the position.

##JGlobalMap

public @interface JGlobalMap {
	String value() default Constants.DEFAULT_FIELD_VALUE;
	Class<?>[] classes() default {};
	String[] attributes() default {};
	String[] excluded() default {};
}

• value represents the target field name.
• classes identifies the classes to which the target field belongs.
• attributes allows to define which fields of the current class must be part of the mapping.
• excluded allows to define which fields of the current class must be excluded from mapping.

##JMapAccessor

public @interface JMapAccessor {
	String name() default Constants.DEFAULT_FIELD_VALUE;
	String get() default Constants.DEFAULT_ACCESSOR_VALUE;
	String set() default Constants.DEFAULT_ACCESSOR_VALUE;
	Class<?>[] classes() default {};
}

• name identifies the name of the field, if not defined refers to the field on which it is located.
• get get method name, if not defined refers to the standard get method name.
• set set method name, if not defined refers to the standard set method name.

##JMapAccessors

public @interface JMapAccessors {
	JMapAccessor[] value();
}

In case you should need to define more JMapAccessor, JMapAccessors comes in handy.
##JMapConversion

public @interface JMapConversion {

	public static final String ALL = "all";
	public static enum Type {DYNAMIC, STATIC};
	
	String[] from() default {ALL};
	String[] to() default {ALL};
	Type type() default Type.STATIC;
	boolean avoidSet() default false;
}

• from source fields.
• to target fields.
• type conversion type (DYNAMIC or STATIC).
• avoidSet this boolean permits to avoid to use the set method for destination, this is useful with the beans generated by JAXB for example, where setting methods for collections aren't defined.
