------------------------------------

             Summary: Allow the use of DTO.class to signal that an Object should be treated as a DTO.
                 Key: FELIX-5475
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-5475
             Project: Felix
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Converter
            Reporter: David Leangen


Sometimes it is useful to treat a class as if it were a DTO, i.e. by ignoring methods, static fields etc.

This can be done using the sourceAs(Class) method with the DTO.class as the parameter. This is a non-ambiguous way to signal to the Converter to treat any Object as if it were a DTO (at the risk of the caller).
