When the Converter specification is released (part of R7) you will be able to
use that quite easily, in fact that will be the recommended way. For example to
convert a map type:
MyAnnotationType config =
converter.convert(map).to(MyAnnotationType.class);
A converter implementation is available as a snapshot from the Felix project.
