------------------------------------

             Summary: It should be possible to exclude fields in 
ReflectionDiffBuilder without being transient
                 Key: LANG-1677
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-1677
             Project: Commons Lang
          Issue Type: Wish
          Components: lang.builder.*
    Affects Versions: 3.12.0
            Reporter: Dennis Baerten


When using ReflectionDiffBuilder to make a diff between two object it will be 
default include all fields. As stated in the documentation static and transient 
fields are excluded.

Using the transient modifier in combination with other frameworks ( such as 
Hibernate ) also has a side affect that those fields are not persisted.

The use case I'm trying to solve it making a diff of an object that get's 
updated and has a LastModificationDate and LastModificationUser and thus will 
always be a field in the diff.
