Huge refactoring of the way MappingMongoConverter instantiates entities. The constructor arguments now have to mirror a property exactly in terms of name. Thus we can pick up mapping information from the property to lookup the correct value from the source document. The @Value annotation can be used to either inject completely arbitrary values into the instance (e.g. by referring to a Spring bean) or simply define an expression against DBObject's fields:
class Sample {
String foo;
String bar;
Sample(String foo, @Value("#root._bar") String bar) {
this.foo = foo;
this.bar = bar;
}
}
trying to create an instance of this class from
{ "foo" : "FOO" } -> new Sample("FOO", null)
{ "_bar" : "BAR" } -> new Sample(null, "BAR").
