My goal is to map specific keys from HashMap to HashMap. I thought that 'key' attribute would help me. But i cannot make it work in expected way.
public class A {
private Map<String, String> map = new HashMap<>();
public A() {
map.put("1", "a");
map.put("2", "b");
map.put("3", "c");
}
public Map<String, String> getMap() {
return map;
}
public void setMap(Map<String, String> map) {
this.map = map;
}
}
public class B {
private Map<String, String> map = new HashMap<String, String>();
public B() {}
public Map<String, String> getMap() {
return map;
}
public void setMap(Map<String, String> map) {
this.map = map;
}
}
mapping.xml:
<mapping wildcard="false">
<class-a>test.A</class-a>
<class-b>test.B</class-b>
<field>
<a key="2">map</a>
<b key="2">map</b>
</field>
</mapping>
public static void main(String... args) {
DozerBeanMapper mapper = new DozerBeanMapper(...);
A a = new A();
B b = mapper.map(a, B.class);
System.out.println(b.getMap());
}
And result is {1=a, 2=b, 3=c}, but i want only {2=b}. How can i achieve that?
'map-get-method' and 'map-set-method' attributes did the trick:
<mapping wildcard="false">
<class-a>test.A</class-a>
<class-b>test.B</class-b>
<field>
<a map-get-method="get" key="2">map</a>
<b map-set-method="put" key="2">map</b>
</field>
</mapping>
