Claus Ibsen commented on CAMEL-1300: ------------------------------------ Introduced @FallbackConverter for discovering annotations based fallback converters. See updated type converter wiki > Type Converter (when using wrapper/holder objects) it should be possible to > delegate the type converter to the embedded object/body that is wrapped > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CAMEL-1300 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/CAMEL-1300 > Project: Apache Camel > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: camel-core > Reporter: Claus Ibsen > Assignee: Claus Ibsen > Fix For: Future > > > During the work with the Camel VFS we use > org.apache.camel.component.file.GenericFile<T> as a wrapper object of the > actual type (such as java.io.File, some FTP file, or whatever) > As java.io.File is central in many components we have type converters that > can convert to/from java.io.File. > I am tired of adding copy of java.io.File converter methods with the > signature of GenericFile<File> and delegate to the java.io.File method. > What is needed is type converter registry to be able to indirect/delegate to > the wrapped object automatically. > For instance if we could implement some interface in GenericFile and it could > just return the body and then we are home free. > Ticket created to remind me to look into it. > Maybe the camel-cxf component could use this as well for some of the POJO > payloads as its uses some internal CXF ValueListHolder or what the class was > named -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
