Interface ObjectFormatter

All Superinterfaces:

Processor

All Known Implementing Classes:

ObjectFormatterAbstract

public interface ObjectFormatter
extends Processor

Base interface to represent any sort of class that takes an Object as it input and returns a String as output; Derived classes that extend ObjectFormatterAbstract, only need to implement the format(Object) as that class provides a convenience implementation of Processor.process(InputStream, OutputStream) that turns the 'in' InputStream into a String, calls ObjectFormatterAbstract.format(Object), and pipes the String returned to the 'out' OutputStream.
