Interface DFDataConvertorProvider

public interface DFDataConvertorProvider

This interface is used for finding appropriate data convertors for the specified DFFieldDataTypeCapability subtype. This interface can be considered rather to be SPI class, because it should be used by those who implements Data convertor for own special types.

DFDataConvertorProvider implementations can register as NetBeans service in META-INF.services and so then will be used by DIFUtilities.findConvertorFor(Class).
