Class MapObjectHandler

java.lang.Object
  org.progeeks.util.xml.AbstractObjectHandler
      org.progeeks.util.xml.BeanObjectHandler
          org.progeeks.util.xml.MapObjectHandler

All Implemented Interfaces:

ObjectHandler

public class MapObjectHandler
extends BeanObjectHandler

ObjectHandler implementation that can treat a map as if it had a collection of Map.Entry objects.

The XML coding could then look like the following:

 <java.util.HashMap>
      <mapEntries>
         <map.Entry>
            <key><myFooBean /></key>
            <value><myBarBean /></value>
        </map.Entry>
        <map.Entry key="someKey" value="some value" />
     </mapEntries>
  </java.util.HashMap>
