UseNameSuffix for specific source and target

[Alysaar]

Hi,
The documentation says that you can use UseNameSuffix and UseNamePattern for a specific source and target like so :

var anonSource = new { _PriceValue = default(double) };

Mapper.WhenMapping
    .From(anonSource)  // Apply to this anon type's mappings
    .ToANew<Product>() // Apply to Product creations
    .UseNamePattern("^_(.+)Value$"); // Match '_PriceValue' to 'Price'

However when I try it it does not seem to be implemented.

Here is an example of code that I expected to work but UseNameSuffix is not recognized :

Mapper.WhenMapping
                .From<object>()
                .To<object>()
                .UseNameSuffix("test");

Am I missing something ?
Thank you.

Hi!

Thanks for raising this - apparently I missed it! You can configure type-specific naming patterns inline, but not using the static API. I'm working on it and it's proving a bit tricky, but I'll get it sorted out and will report back.

Thanks again!

Ok!

That was more complex than maybe it should have been, but it's done! The latest v1.6 branch code includes:

var anonSource = new { _PriceValue = default(double) };

Mapper.WhenMapping
    .From(anonSource)  // Apply to this anon type's mappings
    .To<Product>()       // Apply to Product mappings
    .UseNamePattern("^_(.+)Value$"); // Match '_PriceValue' to 'Price'

...release to follow. It only exists on the .From<>().To<>() API - not .From<>().ToANew<>(), etc - so you can't have different naming patterns for object creations and updates, for example.

Thanks again for pointing this out :)

UseNamePattern on the static API is included in v1.6, which is now available on NuGet.

Thanks again for the feedback!
