Interface BridgeAdaptor

All Known Implementing Classes:

NullEncodingFieldBridge, NullEncodingTwoWayFieldBridge, String2FieldBridgeAdaptor, TwoWayString2FieldBridgeAdaptor, TwoWayString2FieldBridgeIgnoreAnalyzerAdaptor

public interface BridgeAdaptor

An interface for bridge adaptors, i.e. types exposing one bridge interface and using another bridge instance under the hood.

Implementing this interface allows BridgeAdaptorUtils to detect specific bridge interfaces (TwoWayStringBridge, IgnoreAnalyzerBridge, ...) even when the adaptor does no re-implement the interface.
