David Bosschaert commented on FELIX-5614:
-----------------------------------------
Hi [~dleangen], injecting this rule sounds like an interesting idea, but I'm
not sure what it would look like...
I think that what you're saying is that you want to specialize isDTO() so that
it considers a source or target class as a DTO even though it has a
constructor. You can already do this with
convert(myDTOWithCtor).sourceAsDTO().to(String.class) ?
If this is not what you're thinking of, could you maybe give an example?
> Make isDTOType(Class<?> cls) publicly available

> 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..
