class RegistryBinder extends java.lang.Object
TheRegistryBinder
object is used acquire converters using a binding between a type and its converter. All converters instantiated are cached internally to ensure that the overhead of acquiring a converter is reduced. Converters are created on demand to ensure they are instantiated only if required.- See Also:

lookup
public Converter lookup(java.lang.Class type) throws java.lang.Exception
This is used to acquire aConverter
instance from this binder. All instances are cached to reduce the overhead of lookups during the serialization process. Converters are lazily instantiated and so are only created if demanded.- Parameters:
type
- this is the type to find the converter for- Returns:
- this returns the converter instance for the type
- Throws:
java.lang.Exception
-
create
private Converter create(java.lang.Class type) throws java.lang.Exception
This is used to acquire aConverter
instance from this binder. All instances are cached to reduce the overhead of lookups during the serialization process. Converters are lazily instantiated and so are only created if demanded.- Parameters:
type
- this is the type to find the converter for- Returns:
- this returns the converter instance for the type
- Throws:
java.lang.Exception
-
bind
public void bind(java.lang.Class type, java.lang.Class converter) throws java.lang.Exception
This is used to register a binding between a type and the converter used to serialize and deserialize it. During the serialization process the converters are retrieved and used to convert the object properties to XML.- Parameters:
type
- this is the object type to bind to a converterconverter
- this is the converter class to be used- Throws:
java.lang.Exception
