Class Binder<I,O>

java.lang.Object
org.nuiton.util.beans.Binder<I,O>
Type Parameters:
I - the source bean type
O - the destination bean type
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable
public class Binder<I,O> extends Object implements Serializable
A binder permits to copy some properties from an object to another one. It is based on a Binder.BinderModel which contains the mapping of properties to transfert from the source object to the destination object. Use the method copy(Object, Object, String...) to transfert properties. Use the method obtainProperties(Object, String...) to obtain some properties from a given object. For more informations about how to obtain a binder, see the BinderFactory or the package info javadoc or unit tests...
