- Type Parameters:
T
- The type of the data structure from which a marshaled (external) representation is to be unmarshaled.SRC
- The type of the marshaled (external) representation.
- All Known Subinterfaces:
MarshalTypeFactory.MarshalTypeFactoryComposite<T,SRC,C>
- Functional Interface:
- This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.
@FunctionalInterface public interface MarshalTypeFactory<T,SRC>
The
MarshalTypeFactory
defines the functionality which must be
provided in order to create marshaling functionality from an internal
representation of a given data structure to an external representation such
as a String
or an InputStream
