David Leangen updated FELIX-5475:
---------------------------------
Description:
Sometimes it is useful to treat a class as if it were a DTO, i.e. by ignoring
methods, static fields etc.
This can be done using the sourceAsDTO() and targetAsDTO() methods that were
recently added to the spec API. This is a non-ambiguous way to signal to the
Converter to treat any Object as if it were a DTO (at the risk of the caller).

This can be done using the sourceAs(Class) method with the DTO.class as the
parameter. This is a non-ambiguous way to signal to the Converter to treat any
Object as if it were a DTO (at the risk of the caller).
