Blake Watters	2e430644d9	Added support for using NSEntityDescription to lookup property types for NSManagedObject attribute and relationships. This enables mapping type transformations on mappings defined against Core Data entities instead of concrete subclasses. fixes #233	2011-08-14 23:21:51 -04:00
Blake Watters	670234b775	Added support for polymorphic object mapping (Github #105, #244). This enables you to dynamically map objects to different destination classes or using different mapping strategies via configuration or callbacks. See Docs/Object Mapping.md for details. ... Other changes include: * Eliminated the RKObjectFactory protocol and implementations. Object mapping instances themselves are now responsible for instantiating target objects for mapping. * Introduced RKObjectAbstractMapping superclass for RKObjectMapping and RKObjectPolymorphicMapping. * Updated example applications to use block object loaders (RKTwitter and RKTwitterCoreData) * Refactored method signatures of RKObjectMapper, RKObjectMapping, and RKObjectMappingProvider to reflect the existence of abstract mapping types. This was necessary to make polymorphic mappings integrate cleanly. * Fixed overlap in RestKit error domains between network and object mapping. fixes #208	2011-07-30 16:00:36 -04:00
Blake Watters	3dfbaf1810	Updated to support setting default value instead of nil when an attribute is missing in the payload. For Core Data backed models, we consult the entity definition to obtain the default value. closes #117	2011-06-28 15:22:04 -04:00
Blake Watters	f3c0995d5e	Implementation of Object Mapping 2.0 design: ... * Removed RestKit from inheritance hierarchy * Mappings are implemented as concrete classes * Mapper is much more flexible & powerful * Much more robust error handling * Serialization is reimplemented as an object mapping operation * Added ability to serialize to JSON natively * Reworked Core Data integration * Simplified the codebase substantially	2011-06-11 19:26:56 -04:00
