I am trying to use Dozer Java API to map two java classes using a custom converter. Is there a way I can configure class-level custom converters in Java? Right now I have to add the configuration in XML:
<configuration>
<custom-converters>
<converter type="com.abc.A2BConverter" >
<class-a>com.abc.ClassA</class-a>
<class-b>com.abc.ClassB</class-b>
</converter>
</custom-converters>
</configuration>`
Any help is appreciated!
The Dozer documentation says:
In fact some parts of the configuration (e.g. global configuration block) are only possible to express in Xml format. (Link)
As far as I know class-level custom converters have to be defined in this global configuration block.
So: No, you cannot define them via the Java API.
