MapStruct Spring Extensions 1.1.2 released
It is my pleasure to announce the next official release of MapStruct Spring Extensions. What started out as a StackOverflow question turned into its own (sub-)project within the MapStruct organization.
Changes in this release:
- TypeDescriptors will now be kept as fields in generated ConversionServiceAdapters which can speed up the conversion process. Thanks to Jesse Bonzo for this contribution.
- The generated ConverterScan
so far used the legacy
@PostConstruct
annotation from the deprecatedjavax.annotation
package underneath. Thanks to Jeff Schnitzer’s contribution, the generator now checks for the availability of the “new”jakarta.annotation.PostConstruct
annotation and will prefer this if it’s available. For reasons of backwards compatibility,javax.annotation.PostConstruct
is the fallback.
Including the annotations and extensions defined in this project will generate a class acting as bridge between
MapStruct’s conventions and Spring'
s ConversionService API
that in turn can be added to any Mapper’s uses
attribute. See
the examples for details.
Thanks
Thanks to Sjaak Derksen for suggesting this solution and Filip Hrisafov for opening the community project. Also thanks to Cosimo Damiano Prete, Daniel Shiplett, Alexey, Olivier Boudet, John Kelly, Myat Min, Hypercube Software, coding-guo, freund17, Joose Haverinen, pw-lehre, and George Noble for their suggestions and fixes in previous releases. If you feel like there’s something missing in MapStruct which could make the Spring experience any smoother, please get involved!
