接下来看Transformer组。
Transformer
ChainedTransformer
SwitchTransformer
TransformerUtils
我们有时候需要将某个对象转换成另一个对象供另一组方法调用,而这两类对象的类型有可能并不是出于同一个继承体系的,或者说出了很基本的Object之外没有共同的父类,或者我们根本不关心他们是不是有其他继承关系,甚至就是同一个类的实例只是对我们而言无所谓,我们为了它能够被后续的调用者有意义的识别和处理,在这样的情形,我们就可以利用Transformer。除了基本的转型Transformer之外,Commons Collections还提供了Transformer链和带条件的Transformer,使得我们很方便的组装出有意义的转型逻辑。
假定我们在处理员工聘用时,需要将原来的Applicant对象转换为Employee对象,而Applicant类和Employee类无论继承关系、字段内容、具体业务职能等等都不是同一派系的,只是某些字段是相关的,且要求必要的转换,那么这个时候我们使用Transformer就可以比较方便的实现这项功能,并且由于它的实现是灵活的、模块化的,使得今后的维护也变得清晰和易于处理。代码如下:
