------------------------------------
Any update on this?
> Dozer Type Conversion Does Not Work With Context Based Mappings (map-id)
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CAMEL-5031
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-5031
> Project: Camel
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: bean-integration, camel-core
> Affects Versions: 2.6.0, 2.9.0
> Reporter: Andre Piwoni
> Priority: Minor
>
> DozerTypeConverter utilizes DozerBeanMappper's method map(Object source,
> Class<T> destinationClass) to convert objects. Unfortunately, this does not
> work for Dozer's context based mapping with map-id because it requires call
> to DozerBeanMappper.map(Object source, Class<T> destinationClass, String
> mapId).
> Example below does not work without map-id, which is actually required for
> this type of mapping (see
> http://dozer.sourceforge.net/documentation/faq.html#complex-to-map)
> <mapping map-id="myMapping">
> <class-a>x.y.z.ComplexType</class-a>
> <class-b>java.util.Map</class-b>
> <field copy-by-reference="true">
> <a>complexTypeField</a>
> <b key="complexTypeFieldKeyName">this</b>
> </field>
> ...
> </mapping>
> DozerTypeConverterLoader has access to ClassMap and its map-id, if any, in
> order to construct a lookup for map-id for a given conversion pair. This is
> tricky, however, since there can be multiple mappings with different ids for
> the same conversion pair.
> Interfaces for Dozer and Camel Conversion may not be fully compatible but it
> would be great if at least limitations can be stated in documentation.
