org.oddjob.arooa.design.DesignParser

All Implemented Interfaces:

ArooaParser<ArooaContext>, DesignNotifier

public class DesignParser
extends Object
implements ArooaParser<ArooaContext>, DesignNotifier

Parses a configuration to create a DesignInstance.

The Design is created using a DesignFactory. If one is not provided a default factory is used which will first check the ElementMappings of the sessions ArooaDescriptor for a one. If none exists it will provide one that will dynamically create a design from the properties of the class as derived from the element and the mappings.
