All Implemented Interfaces:

public class Hibernate3BeanTransformer
extends BeanTransformer

A Hibernate 3 Bean Transformer is simply a BeanTransformer with the extended capabilities of handling Hibernate (v3.x) objects. By default, the Hibernate proxies are replaced with the actual instances, eagerly fetching from the database as necessary. However, the exact behavior of the transformation process, including whether eager fetching is enabled or not, can be controlled using the same SPI as BeanTransformer.

Method Summary

protected <T> T	createToInstance(Object from, Class<T> toClass) Creates a target instance from either the class of the given "from" object or the given toClass, giving priority to the one which is more specific whenever possible.
protected <T> T	replicate(T from) Replicate the given from object, recursively if necessary.

Method Detail

createToInstance

protected <T> T createToInstance(Object from,
                                 Class<T> toClass)
                      throws InstantiationException,
                             IllegalAccessException,
                             SecurityException,
                             NoSuchMethodException

Creates a target instance from either the class of the given "from" object or the given toClass, giving priority to the one which is more specific whenever possible. Note the class of the given from object is un-enhanced if it is found to be an enhanced object either via cglib or javassist.

Overrides:

createToInstance in class ReplicatorTemplate

Throws:

InstantiationException

IllegalAccessException

SecurityException

NoSuchMethodException

replicate

protected <T> T replicate(T from)

Replicate the given from object, recursively if necessary. Currently a property is replicated if it is an instance of Collection, Map, Timestamp, Date, Blob, Hibernate entity, JavaBean, or an array.

Overrides:

replicate in class ReplicatorTemplate
