date format configuration in dozer.xml


I am using Dozer mapper to map Service objects to Value objects. I am mapping the date by means of the following:

<mapping date-format="dd-MM-yyyy">
  <class-a>MySo</class-a>
  <class-b>MyVO</class-b>
  <field>
    <a>dateStr</a>
    <b>dateObj</b>
  </field>
</mapping>

However, I need to specify the format for the date each time. Is there some other approach to map string date directly?


Solution

  • In dozer.xml we can specify some default configuration.

    for eg.

    <configuration>
        <stop-on-errors>true</stop-on-errors>
        <date-format>dd-MM-yy</date-format>
        <wildcard>true</wildcard>
    </configuration>
