Class CollectionMappingProcessor

java.lang.Object
  org.compass.core.config.process.CollectionMappingProcessor

All Implemented Interfaces:

MappingProcessor

public class CollectionMappingProcessor
extends Object
implements MappingProcessor

Goes over all the OSEM ClassMappings. For each class mappings, goes over all of its mappings and checks if they represent a collection/array. If they represent a collection/array, wraps them with either a CollectionMapping or an ArrayMapping. Copies over the mappings types and set it as the collection/array element mapping.

A note on element mapping: Compass simplifies mappings for collection. There is no need for different property/component/reference mappings when handling collections/arrays. So, the actual mappings (property/ component/reference) actually refers to the element mapping, which is why the mapping constructed is copied over as the element mapping.
