public interface IConvertable

An object that can be converted into another type. Implementing this interface makes no guarantees that convertTo(Class) will actually return anything other than this or null.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
default <T> T	convertTo(java.lang.Class<T> clazz) Attempts to convert this object to the given class.

Method Detail

convertTo

@Nullable
default <T> T convertTo(java.lang.Class<T> clazz)

Attempts to convert this object to the given class. Returns this object if it is already an instance of the given class, a separate object if it can be converted, or null if no conversion is possible.
