Hi!
I've a question to the BeanUtils.describe() method. In the javadoc of this
method it is stated:
"Return the entire set of properties for which the specified bean provides a
read method. This map can be fed back to a call to BeanUtils.populate() to
reconsitute the same set of properties, modulo differences for read-only and
write-only properties."
I tried:
BeanUtils.populate(target,BeanUtils.describe(source));
but got:
java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException:
java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: Property 'class' has no setter method
The Bean source has two String-attributes and target has the same two
attributes, but of type int. The problem is, that describe() finds the
getClass() method of java.lang.Object and writes a key "class" with value
"class test.Source" in the resulting map. This property can't be set in the
target-Bean, of course.
I must do something wrong, because with this behaviour it'll never be
possible to transfer properties form one to another object (even if the
objects are instances of the same class a setClass() method wouldn't be
found). My workaround is to delete the key 'class' from the map.
Can somebody help me?
Thanks in advance
Alexander
