MapStruct @AfterMapping scope

With MapStruct does @AfterMapping have to apply to every method on the class?

Should each EntityDTO have its own mapper class?

Not Each EntityDTO should have its own MapperClass. Each Entity should have its own class. Considering you have the Entity User. The your Mapper can look something like this:

@Mapper(config = MappingConfig.class)
public interface UserMapper {

  @Mapping(target = "someValue", ignore = true)
  UserDTO2 mapToEntity(User userEntity);

  UserDTO1 mapToEntity(User userEntity);

  @AfterMapping
  default void setAfterMappingAnlageToDto(User source, @MappingTarget UserDTO1 target) {
      // your logic for the first DTO
  }

  @AfterMapping
  default void setAfterMappingAnlageToDto(User source, @MappingTarget UserDTO2 target) {
      // your logic for the second DTO
  }

}

As you can see, it is possible to tell @AfterMapping to only be used with a specific DTOs.
