Emaze Maple

Emaze Maple is a generic Java object mapper library using reflection.

Basic usage example

public class BasicUsageExample {

    public static class PersonDAO {
        public PersonTO getPerson() {
            return new PersonTO("John", "Doe", 45);
        }
        public List<PersonTO> getPersons() {
            return Arrays.asList(
                    new PersonTO("John", "Doe", 45),
                    new PersonTO("Jane", "Doe", 35));
        }

        public void save(PersonTO person) {
            /* persist person to database */
        }
    }

    public static class PersonBO {
        private String firstName;
        private String lastName;
        private long age;

        public void setFirstName(String firstName) {
            this.firstName = firstName;
        }

        public void setLastName(String lastName) {
            this.lastName = lastName;
        }

        public void setAge(long age) {
            this.age = age;
        }
    }

    public static class PersonTO {
        private String firstName;
        private String lastName;
        private long age;

        public PersonTO(String firstName, String lastName, long age) {
            this.firstName = firstName;
            this.lastName = lastName;
            this.age = age;
        }
    }

    public final static void main(String args[]) {

        final Mapper mapper = ResolvingMapper.Builder.defaults().build();

        final PersonDAO personDAO = new PersonDAO();
        final PersonTO personTO = personDAO.getPerson();
        final PersonBO personBO = mapper.map(personTO, PersonBO.class);

        Assert.assertEquals(personTO.firstName, personBO.firstName);
        Assert.assertEquals(personTO.lastName, personBO.lastName);
        Assert.assertEquals(personTO.age, personBO.age);

        /* mapping arrays of objects too... */
        final List<PersonTO> personsTO = personDAO.getPersons();
        final List<PersonBO> personsBO = mapper.map(personsTO, PersonBO.class);

        Assert.assertEquals(personsTO.get(0).firstName, personsBO.get(0).firstName);
        Assert.assertEquals(personsTO.get(0).lastName, personsBO.get(0).lastName);
        Assert.assertEquals(personsTO.get(0).age, personsBO.get(0).age);

        Assert.assertEquals(personsTO.get(1).firstName, personsBO.get(1).firstName);
        Assert.assertEquals(personsTO.get(1).lastName, personsBO.get(1).lastName);
        Assert.assertEquals(personsTO.get(1).age, personsBO.get(1).age);

    }
}
