Specified by:
convertDataValueToObjectValue in interface XMLConverter

convertObjectValueToDataValue

public java.lang.Object convertObjectValueToDataValue(java.lang.Object objectValue,
                                                      Session session,
                                                      XMLMarshaller marshaller)

convertDataValueToObjectValue

public java.lang.Object convertDataValueToObjectValue(java.lang.Object dataValue,
                                                      Session session)
Description copied from interface: Converter
PUBLIC: Convert the databases' data representation of the value to the object's representation. For example this could convert between an sql.Time datatype and the Java Calendar type.

Specified by:
convertDataValueToObjectValue in interface Converter

convertObjectValueToDataValue

public java.lang.Object convertObjectValueToDataValue(java.lang.Object objectValue,
                                                      Session session)
Description copied from interface: Converter
PUBLIC: Convert the object's representation of the value to the databases' data representation. For example this could convert between a Calendar Java type and the sql.Time datatype.

Specified by:
convertObjectValueToDataValue in interface Converter

initialize

public void initialize(DatabaseMapping mapping,
                       Session session)
Description copied from interface: Converter
PUBLIC: Allow for any initialization.

Specified by:
initialize in interface Converter

isMutable

public boolean isMutable()
Description copied from interface: Converter
PUBLIC: If the converter converts the value to a mutable value, i.e. a value that can have its' parts changed without being replaced, then it must return true. If the value is not mutable, cannot be changed without replacing the whole value then false must be returned. This is used within the UnitOfWork to determine how to clone.

isMutable in interface Converter
