|
24 | * <p>Strategy class for string <-> object conversions. |
|
25 | * Implementations of this interface are used by Betwixt to perform |
|
26 | * string <-> object conversions. |
|
27 | * This performs only the most basic conversions. |
|
28 | * Most applications will use a subclass. |
|
29 | * </p> |
|
30 | * <p>It is strongly recommended that (in order to support round tripping) |
|
31 | * that <code>objectToString</code> and <code>stringToObject</code> |
|
32 | * are inverse functions. |
|
33 | * In other words, given the same flavour, context and type the applying |
|
34 | * objectToString to the result of stringToObject should be equal to the |
|
35 | * original input. |
