Singleton model mapper

[syed rizwan]

Hi Jonathan,

It is good that mapping can be reused by having model mapper singleton. Is it thread safe?

How can I create a model mapper instance with existing type maps?

Thanks

Definitely reuse ModelMapper instances when you can. It's considered a best practice. ModelMapper is threadsafe.

There's no way to do this currently. Do you have a use case where this would be helpful?

Hi Jonathan,

Thanks for the confirmation.

I was checking for having an alternative approach for performance and thread safety and that triggered my second question. However this might not be needed now as the first answer would suffice.

Thanks
