-----------------------------------
Resolution: Implemented
> Adding ConversionContext to converter params
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TAMAYA-128
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAMAYA-128
> Project: Tamaya
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: API
> Affects Versions: 0.1-incubating
> Reporter: Anatole Tresch
> Assignee: Anatole Tresch
> Fix For: 0.2-incubating
>
>
> For passing metadata to a PropertyConverter more arguments are needed then
> only the simple String input value. Therefore an additional ConversionContext
> is passed with the following data:
> * the requested key
> * the requested target type
> * the base configuration
> * the injected field or method (optional).
> * a (mutable) list of supported formats as Strings
> The ladder also provides an elegant way to enable converters to dynamically
> register their supported formats, making them available for improved user
> feedback on the currently supported formats for a type. Nevertheless the
> PropertyConverter interface can stay functional.
> *Unfortunately this change breaks the current PropertyConverter SPI*, but
> extending the ConversionContext should be possible when needed in the future
> without breaking the API again.
