Java Config equivalent for conversionService / FormattingConversionServiceFactoryBean

Question

I have an entity that contains another entity, as follows:

public class Order {

    @Id
    private int id;

    @NotNull
    private Date requestDate;

    @No         


        

Answer 1

All you need to do in your case is:

@Configuration
public class MvcConfig extends WebMvcConfigurerAdapter{

    @Autowired
    private OrderTypeConvertor orderTypeConvertor;

    ...

    @Override
    public void addFormatters(FormatterRegistry registry) {
        registry.addConverter(orderTypeConvertor);
    }
}
