Method Detail

secondaryToPrimary

public FudgeDateTime secondaryToPrimary(Date object)

Converts an object from the secondary type to a primitive Fudge type for writing. An implementation may assume that the object parameter is not null.

Specified by:

secondaryToPrimary in class SecondaryFieldTypeBase<Date,Object,FudgeDateTime>

Parameters:

object - the secondary instance

Returns:

the underlying Fudge data to write out

primaryToSecondary

public Date primaryToSecondary(Object object)

Converts an object to the secondary type this converter supports.

Parameters:

object - to convert

Returns:

the converted object

primaryToSecondary

protected Date primaryToSecondary(FudgeDateTime object)

Primary to secondary conversion, where the primary type is a FudgeDateTime.

Parameters:

object - primary object

Returns:

the converted Date object

primaryToSecondary

protected Date primaryToSecondary(FudgeDate object)

Primary secondary conversion, where the primary type is a FudgeDate.

Parameters:

object - primary object

Returns:

the converted Date object

canConvertPrimary

public boolean canConvertPrimary(Class<?> javaType)

Returns true if this converter can manipulate the requested class.

Parameters:

javaType - to query

Returns:

true if a call to FudgeTypeConverter.primaryToSecondary(Primary) will succeed, false if it would fail
