Having wildcard=true I cannot map via annotations

[alexey-anufriev]

Whats your runtime?

• Dozer version: 6.4.1
• OS version: MacOS Mojave
• JDK version: 8

Whats the problem?

Steps to reproduce:

1. Set <wildcard>false</wildcard> in configuration
2. Create Source and Target classes with two fields: fieldA and fieldB and corresponding getters and setters
3. Annotate only fieldA in those classes but keep fieldB
4. Do not supply any XML mappings, use only annotations
5. Try to map

Observed Results:

In Target object neither fieldA nor fieldB has values

Expected Results:

Only annotated fieldA is being mapped

Reason:

Inside ClassMapBuilder#generateMapping there is a condition:

if (!classMap.isWildcard()) {
    return;
}

Using XML mapping that works but not via annotations. Documentations says that with wildcard being disabled it is important to specify fields explicitly. But isn't that so if I have annotations?

hi @garethahealy, is there a reason for this to be closed?
