All Implemented Interfaces:

IComponent, ILinkable, IMapping

Direct Known Subclasses:

MappingDefinition, MappingDirect
```
public abstract class MappingBase
extends LinkableBase
implements IMapping
```
Base class for mapping definitions. This is used for both normal and custom mappings. It handles adding the appropriate marshalling and/or unmarshalling interfaces and methods to the classes.

                   java.lang.String type,
                   java.lang.String tname)
```
    Constructor. This version requires the component to be set later, using the PassThroughComponent.setWrappedComponent(org.jibx.binding.def.IComponent) method.
    
    Parameters:
    
    contain - containing binding definition structure
    
    type - class name handled by mapping
    
    tname - qualified type name, in text form
  - MappingBase
```
public MappingBase(IContainer contain,
                   java.lang.String type,
                   java.lang.String tname,
                   IComponent wrap)
```
    Constructor with wrapped component supplied.
    
    Parameters:
    
    contain - containing binding definition structure
    
    type - class name handled by mapping
    
    tname - qualified type name, in text form
    
    wrap - wrapped binding component
- Method Detail
  - getBoundClass
```
public abstract BoundClass getBoundClass()
```
    Get the mapped class information. This must be implemented in each subclass to return the type of the bound class.
    
    Returns:
    
    information for mapped class
  - addIMarshallableMethod
```
protected void addIMarshallableMethod()
                               throws JiBXException
```
    Generate marshallable interface methods for this mapping. This is not applicable to abstract mappings, since they cannot be marshalled as separate items.
    
    Throws:
    
    JiBXException - if error in generating code
  - addIUnmarshallableMethod
```
protected void addIUnmarshallableMethod()
                                 throws JiBXException
```
    Generate unmarshallable interface method for this mapping. This is not applicable to abstract mappings, since they cannot be unmarshalled as separate items.
    
    Throws:
    
    JiBXException - if error in generating code
  - getMappingName
```
public java.lang.String getMappingName()
```
    Description copied from interface: IMapping
    
    Get the mapping name used in binding tables.
    
    Specified by:
