Dan Connelly commented on GRFT-101:
-----------------------------------

Also, since collection may be an immutable (where collection cannot be set in 
an object, but items in the existing collection can be aded and removed), a 
similar hook in ObjectConverterImpl is needed to support an escape from having 
ReflectionUtils attempt to forace a NEW collection instance into the object:

        
        protected void setCollection(Object object, String fieldName, 
ManageableCollection collection) {
                ReflectionUtils.setNestedProperty(object, fieldName, 
collection);
        }


Then change collection setter in retrieveCollectionField method to:

                this.setCollection(object, collectionDescriptor.getFieldName(), 
collection);

> Allow developer to supply "newInstace" method in subclass of 
> ObjectConverterImpl

> I used a simple change in ObjectConverterImpl.   This allows me to use a 
> Factory class (in place of JavaBean constructors) in my object model.
> I added the following method to ObjectConverterImpl.:
>    protected Object newInstance(String className) {
>        return ReflectionUtils.newInstance(className);
>    }
> Elsewhere in ObjectConverterImpl, it will now invoke
>            this.newInstance(classDescriptor.getClassName());
> every where that is previously invoked
>            ReflectionUtils.newInstance(classDescriptor.getClassName());
> Now I can over-ride the newInstance method in MyObjectConverterImpl (which 
> subclasses ObjectConverterImpl).   This allows me to construct objects for my 
> model using its Factory class.
