Class AutoTransformer

java.lang.Object

org.mule.AbstractAnnotatedObject

org.mule.transformer.AbstractTransformer

org.mule.transformer.AbstractMessageTransformer

org.mule.transformer.simple.AutoTransformer

All Implemented Interfaces:

AnnotatedObject, MuleContextAware, Disposable, Initialisable, NameableObject, NamedObject, MessageProcessor, MessageTransformer, Transformer, EndpointAware

public class AutoTransformer
extends AbstractMessageTransformer

A transformer that uses the transform discovery mechanism to convert the message payload. This transformer works much better when transforming custom object types rather that java types since there is less chance for ambiguity. If an exact match cannot be made an execption will be thrown.
