Correct way to un-ignore a property

[artkolisnyk]

A property in a source class is marked with [MapperIgnore] attribute since most of the target mappings don't need it. But I want to include it in one specific mapping.

What is the most correct way of doing it (un-ignoring)?

If I do it via [MapProperty] attribute I'm getting a warning

Thanks for the suggestion, currently [MapperIgnore] is a global instruction: once a member is ignored, it cannot be “un-ignored” in a specific mapping. The [MapProperty] attribute intentionally does not override ignores, which is why you are seeing a warning.

We don’t plan to support un-ignoring in the future, since it would complicate the semantics of mapping configuration. If you need this property in only one mapping, the recommended approach is to remove [MapperIgnore] from the source property and instead configure ignores explicitly on the mappings where it should be excluded.

Thanks for the reply @latonz. I have over a 100 mapping methods that need a property ignored and only a few that have to include it, so it would quite tedious to add a [MapperIgnore] attribute for each method instead of just one property. I hope you will reconsider and add some attribute like [MapperInclude] for methods to make things easier to configure in cases like mine.
