Annotation Interface PofExtractor
ExtractorBinding
annotation representing a PofExtractor
.
This annotation can be used to define an extractor that extracts and attribute
from a POF stream based on an array of integer property indices, in which
case the type is optional, or a property path based on serialized field names
concatenated using period (ie. address.city
, in which case type()
attribute must be set as well.
The latter approach can only be used if the specified type is annotated with a
@PortableType
annotation and has been instrumented using
PortableTypeGenerator
(typically via pof-maven-plugin
).
Either index()
or path()
must be specified within this
annotation in order for it to be valid.
