thomas menzel commented on BEANUTILS-321:
-----------------------------------------

> how to get those classes
case a) JAXB 
case b) a class persisted to Hibernate where the state of null is also valid 
and needs to be reacted upon accordingly

> NPE
why would i get one of those when just copying the property ?
because of converters?
afer all i expect smth. like this to be performed: {{a.isBooleanClass(  
b.isBooleanClass() ) }}

> Java doc
i had read that somewhere along trying to find the problem but it didnt click 
that this meant "native boolean". 
u see, with autoboxing I dont care anymore or only a little about native or 
not...



> [beanutils] wont recognize isXXX() properties returning Boolean Object

> it seems that an isXXX() style property returning an java.lang.Boolean Object 
> is NOT recognized as the getter peoperty -- at least it wont copy it.
> Hence, the test case below will fail.
> I suggest to handle these props as well, as for a user of BeanUtils this 
> was/is quite surprising to me -- and probably others.
