marshall

public boolean marshall(Resource resource,
                        Object root,
                        Mapping mapping,
                        MarshallingContext context)
                 throws ConversionException

Description copied from interface: Converter

Marshall the given Object to the given Resource. Will use the mapping definition as to how to marshall the object.

Returns true if data was saved in the index, and it can be read as well (i.e. stored).

Specified by:

marshall in interface Converter

Parameters:

resource - The resource to marhsall the object to

root - The Object to marshall to the resource

mapping - The mapping definition of how to marshall the Object to the resoruce

context - The context for the current marhslling process

Returns:

true if data was saved in the the index that can be read.

Throws:

ConversionException

unmarshall

public Object unmarshall(Resource resource,
                         Mapping mapping,
                         MarshallingContext context)
                  throws ConversionException

Description copied from interface: Converter

Unmarshall the given Resource to the appropiate Object.

Specified by:

unmarshall in interface Converter

Parameters:

resource - The resource to unmarshall into an Object

mapping - The mapping definition of how to unmarshall the Resource into an Object

context - The context for the current marshalling process

Returns:

The object unmarshalled

Throws:

ConversionException

handleNulls

protected boolean handleNulls(MarshallingContext context)

Should the converter handle nulls? Handling nulls means should the converter process nulls or not. Usually the converter will not persist null values, but sometimes it might be needed (MarshallingContext.handleNulls()).

Extracted to a method so special converters can control null handling.

Parameters:

context - The marshalling context

Returns:

true if the converter should handle null values

isNullValue

protected boolean isNullValue(MarshallingContext context,
                              String value)

Is the value read from the search engine is a null value during the unmarshall process.

Parameters:

context - The marshalling context

value - The value to check for null value.

Returns:

true if the value represents a null value.
