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

3204682f72 Added object mapping management to the mapping provider for folks who don't have keyPaths. Deprecated setMapping:forKeyPath: in favor of setObjectMapping:forKeyPath: for consistency with the other method signatures. 2011-06-20 10:49:40 -04:00

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
