GWT AutoBean with POJO class instead of interface

Question

I\'m hoping someone can suggest a simple solution to my problem.

I have a POJO, say:

public class Person
{
    private String name;
    public String         


        

Answer 1

It is possible if its a simple POJO and does not have properties of other autobean types:

1) Make PersonPojo implements Person

2) Add a wrapper method to the factory:

public interface PersonFactory extends AutoBeanFactory {
    AutoBean person( Person p ); // wrap existing
}

3) Create wrapped AutoBean and serialise with AutoBeanCodex.encode to JSON

PersonPojo myPersonPojo = new PersonPojo("joe");
AutoBean autoBeanPerson = personFactory.person( myPersonPojo );
