I have 2 Java objects, each contains a List of different Java objects. Using Dozer, I need to map the data from one object to another object. Can anyone help me pa the data from the FromPerson object to the ToPerson object? I am able to map the personList (6 in total) but not its fields.
class From{
List<FromPerson> personList;
}
class FromPerson{
String name;
}
class To{
List<ToPerson> personList;
}
class ToPerson{
String toPersonName;
}
<mapping>
<class-a>com.From</class-a>
<class-b>com.To</class-b>
</mapping>
Since both are list , if you are sure about first object of fromPerson list should map to first object of toPerson list, it is possible,Please see below code, it is working code
<mapping>
<class-a>com.FromPerson</class-a>
<class-b>com.ToPerson</class-b>
<field>
<a>name</a>
<b>toPersonName</b>
</field>
</mapping>
<mapping>
<class-a>com.From</class-a>
<class-b>com.To</class-b>
<field>
<a>personList</a>
<b>personList</b>
<b-hint>com.ToPerson</b-hint>
</field>
</mapping>
