Package org.chwf.converter Description

A package facilitating string-to-value conversions. Its classes are thread-safe, so that they are useful in both single-user and multi-user applications.

For implementations, this package uses the basic converters in the org.chwf.converter.basic package. If you wish to customize the conversion process, you may define custom converter subclasses and map them to Java and/or logical datatypes in the ChrysalisConfig.xml file.

  <converter>
    <datatype>
      <mapping name="Datatype-Naming"
               value="Custom-Converter-Class-Naming" />
    </datatype>
  </converter>

Custom converters defined in this way take precedence over the default converters that come with Chrysalis.
