19 | * Public custom bean factory interface. | |
20 | * | |
21 | * You can configure Dozer to use custom bean factories to create new instances of destination data objects during the | |
22 | * mapping process. By default Dozer just creates a new instance of any destination objects using a default constructor. | |
23 | * This is sufficient for most use cases, but if you need more flexibility you can specify your own bean factories to | |
24 | * instantiate the data objects. | |
25 | * | |
26 | * <p> | |
27 | * Your custom bean factory must implement the org.dozer.BeanFactory interface. | |
28 | * | |
29 | * <p> | |
30 | * Note: By default the Dozer mapping engine will use the destination object class name for the bean id when invoking | |
31 | * the factory. | |
