/**
* <p>A custom mapping between Java types and Open types for use in MXBeans.
* To define such a mapping, subclass this class and define at least the
* {@link #fromOpenValue fromOpenValue} and {@link #toOpenValue toOpenValue}
* methods, and optionally the {@link #checkReconstructible} method.
* Then either use an {@link MXBeanMappingClass} annotation on your custom
* Java types, or include this MXBeanMapping in an
* {@link MXBeanMappingFactory}.</p>
*
* <p>For example, suppose we have a class {@code MyLinkedList}, which looks
* like this:</p>
*
* <pre>
* public class MyLinkedList {
* public MyLinkedList(String name, MyLinkedList next) {...}
* public String getName() {...}
* public MyLinkedList getNext() {...}
* }
* </pre>
*
* <p>This is not a valid type for MXBeans, because it contains a
* self-referential property "next" defined by the {@code getNext()}
* method. MXBeans do not support recursive types. So we would like
* to specify a mapping for {@code MyLinkedList} explicitly. When an
* MXBean interface contains {@code MyLinkedList}, that will be mapped
* into a {@code String[]}, which is a valid Open Type.</p>
*
* <p>To define this mapping, we first subclass {@code MXBeanMapping}:</p>
*
* <pre>
* public class MyLinkedListMapping extends MXBeanMapping {
* public MyLinkedListMapping(Type type) throws OpenDataException {
* super(MyLinkedList.class, ArrayType.getArrayType(SimpleType.STRING));
* if (type != MyLinkedList.class)
* throw new OpenDataException("Mapping only valid for MyLinkedList");
* }
*
* {@literal @Override}
* public Object fromOpenValue(Object openValue) throws InvalidObjectException {
* String[] array = (String[]) openValue;
* MyLinkedList list = null;
* for (int i = array.length - 1; i &gt;= 0; i--)
* list = new MyLinkedList(array[i], list);
* return list;
* }
*
* {@literal @Override}
* public Object toOpenValue(Object javaValue) throws OpenDataException {
* ArrayList&lt;String&gt; array = new ArrayList&lt;String&gt;();
* for (MyLinkedList list = (MyLinkedList) javaValue; list != null;
* list = list.getNext())
* array.add(list.getName());
* return array.toArray(new String[0]);
* }
* }
* </pre>
*
* <p>The call to the superclass constructor specifies what the
* original Java type is ({@code MyLinkedList.class}) and what Open
* Type it is mapped to ({@code
* ArrayType.getArrayType(SimpleType.STRING)}). The {@code
* fromOpenValue} method says how we go from the Open Type ({@code
* String[]}) to the Java type ({@code MyLinkedList}), and the {@code
* toOpenValue} method says how we go from the Java type to the Open
* Type.</p>
*
* <p>With this mapping defined, we can annotate the {@code MyLinkedList}
* class appropriately:</p>
*
* <pre>
* {@literal @MXBeanMappingClass}(MyLinkedListMapping.class)
* public class MyLinkedList {...}
* </pre>
*
* <p>Now we can use {@code MyLinkedList} in an MXBean interface and it
* will work.</p>
*
* <p>If we are unable to modify the {@code MyLinkedList} class,
* we can define an {@link MXBeanMappingFactory}. See the documentation
* of that class for further details.</p>
*
* @see <a href="../MXBean.html#custom">MXBean specification, section
* "Custom MXBean type mappings"</a>
