[jira] [Commented] (SLING-2938) AdapterMethods annotation and adapter proxy service

["Henry Kuijpers (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-2938?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17189289#comment-17189289 ] 

Henry Kuijpers commented on SLING-2938:
---------------------------------------

Any idea on when this will be merged in, [~bdelacretaz], [~kwin], [~cziegeler]? I think with the newer OSGi annotations, this will become more important:

Currently we'll have to register our adapters this way:
{code:java}
@Component(
        service = AdapterFactory.class,
        immediate = true,
        property = {
                "adaptables=org.apache.sling.api.resource.Resource",
                "adapters=my.custom.adapter.code.MyAdapterType"
        }
)
{code}
Which is very errorprone, in case we rename or move `MyAdapterType` to a different package for example.

> Following up on an idea that Olaf Otto presented at CQCon last week, I've been working on an @AdapterMethod annotation that makes it easier to create Sling adapters, as in
>   @Component
>   @Service
>   public class MyAdapters implements AdapterMethodProvider {
>     @AdapterMethod
>     public Bar toBar(Foo f) { ... adapt Foo to Bar ... }
>   }
> As this requires changes to the sling.api bundle, I'll commit to my whiteboard first, for review
