David Leangen commented on FELIX-5614:
--------------------------------------
I just added an identical issue against the Converter spec.
Even if that request is refused, it would still be nice for the Felix Converter
to offer that service. So, I'll leave this issue here until resolved one way or
the other. :-)
> Make isDTOType(Class<?> cls) publicly available
> -----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FELIX-5614
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-5614
> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Converter
> Reporter: David Leangen
>
> In ConvertingImpl, which a (bundle private) implementation class, there is a
> (class private) method: isDTOType(Class<?> cls)
> Since this is a rule based on the definition of a DTO in the spec, it would
> be nice to make this test somehow available publicly for general use
> (including by other bundles).
> It tedious for each user of the API to write their own test if an
> authoritative test is already available.
> For my particular use case, the Schematizer needs to test a class to
> determine whether or not it is a DTO in order to know how to handle it.
> Having the test available (without having to copy over the code from the
> Converter) would be quite useful..
