Joerg Schaible commented on LANG-332:
-------------------------------------
I am quite sure, that we break a lot of code if we change the behavior of this
method. However, it would be really nice if we had both -
ReflectionEqualsBuilder and JavaBeanEqualsBuilder. It simply depends on the
situation where the functionality is used.
> EqualsBuilder to alternatively use method properties

> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 2.3
> Reporter: Paul Benedict
> Fix For: 3.0

>
> While it is very nice reflection can be used to build a nice equals method,
> the strategy to focus on private properties is non-negotiable. This strategy
> is incompatible with CGLIB proxies which rely on method invocations to
> delegate to the properties of the inner target. I would prefer a switch to
> dynamically invoke public get* methods over direct property access.
> PS: Same thoughts on ReflectionToStringBuilder and HashCodeBuilder
