Javadoc

Converter registry global per JVM. This is the facade of converters package and together with Converterinterface are the only public entities. Converter registry is a sort of directory service: it binds value types with converters. A value type is a class that wrap a single value susceptible to be represented as a single string and a converter is used exactly for that: convert value type to / from string.

String representation supplied by converter package is not meant for user interfaces but merely for internal value types serialization and storage. For this reason is critical to have the same converter - or at least compatible, for distributed applications running on separated JVM. Also this is the reason converter registry is singleton.

Converter registry provides method to retrieve registry singleton, see #getInstance() and convenient ways to get converter instance, #getConverter() and predicate to test for value type support, #hasType(Type).

 
if (ConverterRegistry.hasType(MessageID.class)) { 
String messageIdValue = ConverterRegistry.getConverter().asString(messageID); 
// store or send message ID 
} 
... 
MessageID messageID = ConverterRegistry.getConverter().asObject(messageIdValue); 
// message ID instance recreated

Converter registry comes with built-in converters for common Java value types but user defined converters are supported. One can use #registerConverter(Class,Class) to bind a custom converter. Also registry searches for ConverterProvider implemented by third party libraries and deployed as services on Java run-time. Here are built-in converters, boxed types apply also to related primitives:

Boolean
Character
Byte
Short
Integer
Long
Float
Double
Enum
Date
Date
Time
Timestamp
Class
File
URL
Locale
TimeZone

Here a is sample code of an user defined converter for a hypothetical MessageID value object. Note that in the context Converter#asObject(String,Class) is executed string argument is already tested for null value; the same is true for object argument from Converter#asString(Object).

 
public final class MessageIDConverter implements Converter { 
@Override 
public <T> T asObject(String string, Class<T> valueType) { 
if (string.isEmpty()) { 
return null; 
} 
return (T) new MessageID(string); 
} 
@Override 
public String asString(Object object) { 
return ((MessageID) object).getValue(); 
} 
} 
... 
ConverterRegistry.getInstance().registerConverter(MessageID.class, MessageIDConverter.class);

It is also possible to combine value type with converter in a single class.

 
public final class MessageID implements Converter { 
// MessageID implementation 
... 
@Override 
public <T> T asObject(String string, Class<T> valueType) { 
... 
} 
@Override 
public String asString(Object object) { 
... 
} 
}
