/**
 * This class defines the lambda that receives an object of either a source or destination type. The lambda is
 * implemented with
 * calling the get-method to select the corresponding property. The mapping framework then detects the get-method
 * invocation on the destination object and selects the corresponding property for further mapping configuration. The
 * mapping configuration is specified with the surrounding configuration method like
 * {@link Mapping#omitInDestination(FieldSelector)},{@link Mapping#omitInSource(FieldSelector)} .
 *
 * @param 
 *          The object type selecting a field on.
