Configures the mapping between two map types, e.g. Map<String, String> and Map<Long, Date>.

Example:


 @Mapper
 public interface SimpleMapper {
       @MapMapping(valueDateFormat = "dd.MM.yyyy")
       Map<String, String> longDateMapToStringStringMap(Map<Long, Date> source);
 }
 

 // generates
 public class SimpleMapperImpl implements SimpleMapper {
      @Override
      public Map<String, String> longDateMapToStringStringMap(Map<Long, Date> source) } {
          Map<String, String> map = new HashMap<String, String>(); }
          for ( java.util.Map.Entry<Long, Date> entry : source.entrySet() ) } {
              String key = new DecimalFormat( "" ).format( entry.getKey() );
              String value = new SimpleDateFormat( "dd.MM.yyyy" ).format( entry.getValue() );
              map.put( key, value );
          }
          // ...
      }
 }

    Optional Elements

    A format string as processable by SimpleDateFormat if the annotated method maps from a map with key type String to an map with key type Date or vice-versa.

    Allows detailed control over the key mapping process.

    A key value qualifier can be specified to aid the selection process of a suitable mapper.

    String-based form of qualifiers; When looking for a suitable mapping method to map this map mapping method's key type, MapStruct will only consider those methods carrying directly or indirectly (i.e. on the class-level) a Named annotation for each of the specified qualifier names.

    Specifies the type of the key to be used in the result of the mapping method in case multiple mapping methods qualify.

    The strategy to be applied when null is passed as source value to this map mapping.

  • Element Details

    • keyDateFormat

      A format string as processable by SimpleDateFormat if the annotated method maps from a map with key type String to an map with key type Date or vice-versa. Will be ignored for all other key types.

      If the locale() is specified, the format will consider the specified locale when processing the date. Otherwise, the system's default locale will be used.

      Returns:
      A date format string as processable by SimpleDateFormat.
      See Also:
      Default:
      ""
    • valueDateFormat

      A format string as processable by SimpleDateFormat if the annotated method maps from a map with value type String to an map with value type Date or vice-versa. Will be ignored for all other value types.

      If the locale() is specified, the format will consider the specified locale when processing the date. Otherwise, the system's default locale will be used.

      Returns:
      A date format string as processable by SimpleDateFormat.
      See Also:
      Default:
      ""
    • keyNumberFormat

      A format string as processable by DecimalFormat if the annotated method maps from a Number to a String or vice-versa. Will be ignored for all other key types.

      If the locale() is specified, the number format will be applied in the context of the given locale. Otherwise, the system's default locale will be used.

      Returns:
      A decimal format string as processable by DecimalFormat.
      See Also:
      Default:
      ""
    • valueNumberFormat

      A format string as processable by DecimalFormat if the annotated method maps from a Number to a String or vice-versa. Will be ignored for all other value types.

      If the locale() is specified, the number format will be applied in the context of the given locale. Otherwise, the system's default locale will be used.

      Returns:
      A decimal format string as processable by DecimalFormat.
      See Also:
      Default:
      ""
    • locale

      Specifies the locale to be used when processing SimpleDateFormat or DecimalFormat for key or value mappings in maps. The locale should be a plain tag representing the language, such as "en" for English, "de" for German, etc.

      If no locale is specified, the system's default locale will be used.

      Returns:
      A string representing the locale to be used when formatting dates or numbers in maps.
      Default:
      ""
    • keyQualifiedBy

      A key value qualifier can be specified to aid the selection process of a suitable mapper. This is useful in case multiple mappers (hand written of internal) qualify and result in an 'Ambiguous mapping methods found' error. A qualifier is a custom annotation and can be placed on either a hand written mapper class or a method.

      Returns:
      the qualifiers
      See Also:
      Default:
      {}
    • keyQualifiedByName

      String[] keyQualifiedByName

      String-based form of qualifiers; When looking for a suitable mapping method to map this map mapping method's key type, MapStruct will only consider those methods carrying directly or indirectly (i.e. on the class-level) a Named annotation for each of the specified qualifier names.

      Note that annotation-based qualifiers are generally preferable as they allow more easily to find references and are safe for refactorings, but name-based qualifiers can be a less verbose alternative when requiring a large number of qualifiers as no custom annotation types are needed.

      Returns:
      One or more qualifier name(s)
      See Also:
      Default:
      {}
    • valueQualifiedBy

      A value qualifier can be specified to aid the selection process of a suitable mapper for the values in the map. This is useful in case multiple mappers (hand written of internal) qualify and result in an 'Ambiguous mapping methods found' error.

      A qualifier is a custom annotation and can be placed on either a hand written mapper class or a method.

      Returns:
      the qualifiers
      See Also:
      Default:
      {}
    • valueQualifiedByName

      String[] valueQualifiedByName

      String-based form of qualifiers; When looking for a suitable mapping method to map this map mapping method's value type, MapStruct will only consider those methods carrying directly or indirectly (i.e. on the class-level) a Named annotation for each of the specified qualifier names.

      Note that annotation-based qualifiers are generally preferable as they allow more easily to find references and are safe for refactorings, but name-based qualifiers can be a less verbose alternative when requiring a large number of qualifiers as no custom annotation types are needed.

      Returns:
      One or more qualifier name(s)
      See Also:
      Default:
      {}
    • keyTargetType

      Class<?> keyTargetType

      Specifies the type of the key to be used in the result of the mapping method in case multiple mapping methods qualify.

      Returns:
      the resultType to select
      Default:
      void.class
    • valueTargetType

      Class<?> valueTargetType

      Specifies the type of the value to be used in the result of the mapping method in case multiple mapping methods qualify.

      Returns:
      the resultType to select
      Default:
      void.class
    • nullValueMappingStrategy

      Returns:
      The strategy to be applied when null is passed as source value to the methods of this mapping.
      Default:
      RETURN_NULL

      Allows detailed control over the key mapping process.

      Returns:

      org.mapstruct.control.MappingControl.class
    • valueMappingControl
