@Type

[mcasasola]

Could implement @type, same as hibernate. Class to convert cursor result to object.

A Custom formatter specified to an attr solve the problem?

[mcasasola]

thats the idea.

[jonatasdaniel]

If you look at the sources, we have a class DateFormatter, implementing the interface Formatter. Then create a property called 'formatter' would receive a class that extends Formatter.

[mcasasola]

Don't figureted, i see Formatter property but where use it?

[jonatasdaniel]

Maybe in Property class.
I'll prepare an example next week.

[mcasasola]

ok, maybe annotated attr and automagically apply formatter, transparently. Without touch property.

[jonatasdaniel]

I think something like this:

MyProperty {

public void set(Object in, Object value) {
value = myCustomFormatter.parse(value);
invoke(in, setMethod).withParams(value);
}

public Object get(Object of) {
object value = invoke(of, getMethod).withoutParams();
return myCustomFormatter.format(value);
}

}

[mcasasola]

But properties are create by framework, how you make relation of entities that requiere formatter and property create in manager initialization?

[jonatasdaniel]

The format would be an attribute of the property, and if the entity attribute is not annotated with @column, a standard format and defined

[mcasasola]

With a attr in @column you defined a formatter implementation?

[jonatasdaniel]

Something like this:

@column(formatter=MyCustomFormatter.class)
private Integer myAttr;

[mcasasola]

ok, i like that way. great.
