Class CGLIBEnhancedConverter

java.lang.Object

com.thoughtworks.xstream.converters.reflection.AbstractReflectionConverter

com.thoughtworks.xstream.converters.reflection.SerializableConverter

com.thoughtworks.xstream.converters.reflection.CGLIBEnhancedConverter

All Implemented Interfaces:

Converter, ConverterMatcher

public class CGLIBEnhancedConverter
extends SerializableConverter

Converts a proxy created by the CGLIB Enhancer. Such a proxy is recreated while deserializing the proxy. The converter does only work, if

• the DefaultNamingPolicy is used for the proxy's name
• the proxy uses a factory or only one Callback is registered
• a possible super class has at least a protected default constructor

Note, that the this converter relies on the CGLIBMapper.
