Converter is an interface describing a Java class that can perform Object-to-String and String-to-Object conversions between model data objects and a String representation of those objects that is suitable for rendering.

Converter implementations must have a zero-arguments public constructor. 

Converter implementation for java.math.BigDecimal values.

Converter implementation for java.math.BigInteger values.

Converter implementation for java.lang.Boolean (and boolean primitive) values.

Converter implementation for java.lang.Byte (and byte primitive) values.

Converter implementation for java.lang.Character (and char primitive) values.

ConverterException is an exception thrown by the getAsObject() or getAsText() method of a Converter , to indicate that the requested conversion cannot be performed.

Converter implementation for java.util.Date values.

The getAsObject() method parses a String into a java.util.Date, according to the following algorithm:

• If the specified String is null, return a null. 

Converter implementation for java.lang.Double (and double primitive) values.

Converter implementation for java.lang.Enum (and enum primitive) values.

Converter implementation for java.lang.Float (and float primitive) values.

Converter implementation for java.lang.Integer (and int primitive) values.

Converter implementation for java.lang.Long (and long primitive) values.

supported filters: package and protection.

Converter implementation for java.lang.Number values.

The getAsObject() method parses a String into an java.lang.Double or java.lang.Long, according to the following algorithm:

• If the specified String is null, return a null. 

Converter implementation for java.lang.Short (and short primitive) values.
