Commons Collections - Transformer

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： 

/** Applicant.java */ 

package sean.study.commons.collections; 

import org.apache.commons.lang.builder.ToStringBuilder;

import org.apache.commons.lang.builder.ToStringStyle;

 

public class Applicant {

       private String name;

    private int age;

    private String applyFor;   

    public Applicant() {

    }

 

    public Applicant(String name, int age, String applyFor) {

        this.name = name;

        this.age = age;

        this.applyFor = applyFor;

    }   

    public String toString() {

        return new ToStringBuilder(this, ToStringStyle.SHORT_PREFIX_STYLE)

                .append("name", name)

                .append("age", age)

                .append("applyFor", applyFor)

                .toString();

    }

 

    public int getAge() {

        return age;

    } 

    public void setAge(int age) {

        this.age = age;

    }

 

    public String getApplyFor() {

        return applyFor;

    }

 

    public void setApplyFor(String applyFor) {

        this.applyFor = applyFor;

    }

 

    public String getName() {

        return name;

    }

 

    public void setName(String name) {

        this.name = name;

    }

 

}
