/**
 * 

Decorates a {@link DynaBean} to provide Map behavior.

* *

The motivation for this implementation is to provide access to {@link DynaBean} * properties in technologies that are unaware of BeanUtils and {@link DynaBean}s - * such as the expression languages of JSTL and JSF.

* *

This can be achieved either by wrapping the {@link DynaBean} prior to * providing it to the technology to process or by providing a Map * accessor method on the DynaBean implementation: *


 *         public Map<String, Object> getMap() {
 *             return new DynaBeanPropertyMapDecorator(this);
 *         }
* *

* *

This, for example, could be used in JSTL in the following way to access * a DynaBean's fooProperty: *

  • ${myDynaBean.map.fooProperty}
*

* *

Usage

* *

To decorate a {@link DynaBean} simply instantiate this class with the * target {@link DynaBean}:

* *
  • Map<String, Object> fooMap = new DynaBeanPropertyMapDecorator(fooDynaBean);
* *

The above example creates a read only Map. * To create a Map which can be modified, construct a * DynaBeanPropertyMapDecorator with the read only * attribute set to false:

* *
  • Map<String, Object> fooMap = * new DynaBeanPropertyMapDecorator(fooDynaBean, false);
* *

Limitations

*

In this implementation the entrySet(), keySet() * and values() methods create an unmodifiable * Set and it does not support the Map's clear() * and remove() operations.
