Simone Tripodi updated JCR-3489:
--------------------------------

    Description: 
The idea is having a small EDSL that simplifies the access to {{Property}} 
value, so rather than coding the following:

{code}
Property property = ...;
boolean oldValue = property.getBoolean();

boolean newValue = !oldValue;
property.setValue(newValue);
{code}

it could be simplified specifying wich type the users are interested on:

{code}
PropertyAccessors propertiesAccessor = ...;

boolean oldValue = propertiesAccessor.get(property).to(boolean.class);

boolean newValue = !oldValue;
propertiesAccessor.set(newValue).to(property);
{code}

where {{PropertiesAccessor}} is the delegated to handle right types handling. 
By default it supports default {{Property}} value types, but it could be 
extended.

It could happen also that users would like to support a larger set of types, 
maybe performing conversions to/from default {{Property}} types, so rather than 
inserting the custom code in the app when required, they could  use the 
{{PropertiesAccessor}}; they first need to register the Accessor implementation 
to (un)bind the type:

{code}
propertiesAccessor.handle(URI.class).with(new PropertyAccessor<URI>() {

            @Override
            public void set(URI value, Property target) throws 
ValueFormatException, RepositoryException {
                // ...
            }

            @Override
            public URI get(Property property) throws ValueFormatException, 
RepositoryException {
                // TODO ...
                return null;
            }

        });
{code}

so they can use the accessor via the {{PropertiesAccessor}}:

{code}
URI oldValue = propertiesAccessor.get(property).to(URI.class);

URI newValue = URI.create("http://jackrabbit.apache.org/";);
propertiesAccessor.set(newValue).to(property);
{code}

Patch coming soon!
