Class level is-accessible doesn't work

[ashlineldridge]

It's my understanding that when the is-accessible="true" settings is applied at the class level this should result in private fields (without getters / setters) being mapped.

For example, the following mapping...

<mapping>
        <class-a is-accessible="true">com.example.Foo</class-a>
        <class-b is-accessible="true">com.example.FooDTO</class-b>
</mapping>

...should result in the private fields of Foo being mapped to FooDTO and visa versa. But the above does not work with Dozer 5.3.2.

However, when the individual fields of Foo and FooDTO are specified and is-accessible="true" is applied at the field-level the private fields are mapped correctly.

Please correct me if my understanding of how is-accessible="true" when applied at the class level is incorrect.

Your understanding is quite logical indeed. I think what happens is that making fields accessible does not alter Dozer automatic field matching algorithm, which is based on properties. So it is a bug, or rather missing feature.

I would consider this as a bug, since in xsd it's said that it would work:

Please let me know if it is possible to make "is-accessible" as global rule for all mapping operations

I'd like to +1 this issue, and would love to see it fixed soon. With this bug in place, it's rather impractical to map beans that have no setters; we'd have to spell out each field so we can set accessible=true on the fields, including all those fields whose names match and could otherwise be auto-detected. Obviously having to list out all the fields, as strings, is completely undesirable and makes this fairly clunky. Thank you.

When will 5.5.2 oder 5.6.0 be released?

[yuranos]

@lauriharpf, will this fix work with API as well? I'm really keen on using something like:

return new BeanMappingBuilder() {
            @Override
            protected void configure() {
                mapping(type(typeA).accessible(true), type(typeB).accessible(true));
            }

        };
