Map to Bean Conversion
SOJO (S implified O ld J ava O bjects) is a Java framework
which converts object graph into a specific structure or representation.
This requires the library sojo-1.0.0.jar to be in classpath.
The following example shows using Converter class.
It converts the given map to bean.
package com.bethecoder.tutorials.sojo.common;
public class Student {
private String name;
private int age;
private String hobby;
public Student () {
}
public Student ( String name, int age, String hobby ) {
super () ;
this .name = name;
this .age = age;
this .hobby = hobby;
}
public String getName () {
return name;
}
public void setName ( String name ) {
this .name = name;
}
public int getAge () {
return age;
}
public void setAge ( int age ) {
this .age = age;
}
public String getHobby () {
return hobby;
}
public void setHobby ( String hobby ) {
this .hobby = hobby;
}
public String toString () {
return "Student[name = " + name + ", age = " + age + ", hobby = " + hobby + "]" ;
}
}
package com.bethecoder.tutorials.sojo.tests;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import net.sf.sojo.core.Converter;
import net.sf.sojo.core.conversion.IterateableMap2BeanConversion;
import com.bethecoder.tutorials.sojo.common.Student;
public class MapToBeanConversion {
/**
* @param args
* @throws IllegalAccessException
* @throws InstantiationException
*/
public static void main ( String [] args ) throws InstantiationException, IllegalAccessException {
Map<String, Object> map = new HashMap<String, Object> () ;
map.put ( "class" , Student. class ) ;
map.put ( "name" , "Sriram" ) ;
map.put ( "hobby" , "Chess" ) ;
map.put ( "age" , 2 ) ;
Converter converter = new Converter () ;
converter.addConversion ( new IterateableMap2BeanConversion ()) ;
Object result = converter.convert ( map ) ;
System.out.println ( result ) ;
}
}
It gives the following output,
Student[name = Sriram, age = 2, hobby = Chess]
