Docs For Class Adapter

Description

Base Class for Business Object Adapters

This class can be used to treat older business objects like phool models with a defined interface. Thus you can successively adapt your old business objects and "translate" them step by step into new models.

Only the abstract methods defined by the parent class "Model" must be implemented by the new Class right from the start. These are load(), save() and remove(). The abstract method "adapt()", that must be implemented to create and set up the adaptee object.
