  +--ca.quine.jcommons.sourceexporter.MarshallingContext

public class MarshallingContext

extends Object

Holds information and properties that keep track of and control source code generation (such as which objects have been seen so far and what code formatting style to use). The propertyMap can be used by marshallers to keep track of internal state, since only one marshaller object is created for each ChainOfResponsibility object. A marshaller may create helper methods in the generated source code and keep track of whether or not they have been added already with the propertyMap. Additional information can also be provided to a marshaller before marshalling begins by putting entries into the map. In order to avoid key collisions with other marshallers, use the fully qualified class name of the marshaller as a prefix on the key.

It is recommended that a Marshaller produce code lines with tabs for indenting. Refer to FormattingRules for details.
