>
> We faced many times the need of converting string fields to uppercase and get
> rid of non-ASCII characters when interacting, using fixed-length files, with
> COBOL banking cores.
> So we decided to patch our own version of camel-bindy to add two new
> properties to DataField annotation:
> toUpperCase=<true|false> which converts, if its a String type field, content
> to uppercase.
> mapToASCII=<true|false> which maps, if its a String type field, content to
> 7-bit ASCII character mapping. Extended characters are currently mapped like
> this
> ä,â,á,à -> a (same for all vowels)
> ß -> b
> ç -> c
> ñ -> n
> Conversion uses a lookup table so it could be easily extended to other chars.
> This conversion only applies when marshalling. This feature has proven very
> useful to us when interacting with banking cores and one that repeatedly has
> to be recoded or reused. We love the annotation-driven model of bindy so
> decided to patch our own version and submit the patch hoping it would be as
> useful to others as it is to us.
