Konrad Windszus commented on SLING-5739:
----------------------------------------
This is different than the other Via then. For example when using Via on the
ValueMapInjector, the Via is applied before it comes to the injector. Here it
is the other way round.
> [Sling Models] Allow for extensible @Via providers
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SLING-5739
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-5739
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Extensions
> Reporter: Justin Edelson
>
> Currently, @Via support in Sling Models is limited to JavaBean properties. It
> would be useful to be able to extend this and allow for downstream projects
> to add new @Via providers.
> Proposing to support this by extending the @Via annotation
> {code}
> @Via(value = "jcr:content", type = ChildResource.class)
> {code}
> The default type is BeanProperty (the current behavior).
> New providers can be added by implementing a ViaProvider SPI and provide a
> marker class for use in the annotation.
