Hello,
The following article gives the basic idea:
http://famvdploeg.com/blog/2008/08/blazeds-and-hibernate-proxied-objects/
In my case, I used a custom Map implementation, called ExternalMap, that is
used to transfer map data over BlazeDS (so that I can map it to my custom
HashCollection on the client side).
In the HibernatePropertyProxy mentioned in the article, I simply overrode
the following method:
@Override
public Object getInstanceToSerialize(Object instance) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Object instanceToSerialize = null;
if (instance instanceof Map) {
instanceToSerialize = new ExternalMap();
PersistentMap map = (PersistentMap)instance;
for (Object key : map.keySet()) {
((Map)instanceToSerialize).put(key, map.get(key));
}
}
else {
instanceToSerialize = super.getInstanceToSerialize(instance);
}
return instanceToSerialize;
}
Hope this may be useful.
Regards,
