Method Detail

simpleName

public final String simpleName()

Returns the simple name, which identifies this mapper against other mappers at the same level in the mappers hierarchy TODO: make this protected once Mapper and FieldMapper are merged together

name

public abstract String name()

Returns the canonical name which uniquely identifies the mapper against other mappers in a type.

merge

public abstract Mapper merge(Mapper mergeWith,
           boolean updateAllTypes)

Return the merge of mergeWith into this. Both this and mergeWith will be left unmodified.

updateFieldType

public abstract Mapper updateFieldType(Map<String,MappedFieldType> fullNameToFieldType)

Update the field type of this mapper. This is necessary because some mapping updates can modify mappings across several types. This method must return a copy of the mapper so that the current mapper is not modified.
