It would be nice to implement a DynaBean version that can self-populate or self-initialize the properties.
Say, if it were possible to encode property type in the property name as: "myProp{MyPropClass}" then the DyanBean's getter/setter can auto add a corresponding dyna property. This will enable any sub properties of MyPropClass to be invoked properly. That is all possible, only if we extend the property specification to include {type} part. Do you feel this is a reasonable thing to do, or are there any pitfalls here ? I am more interested in doing this with (Craig's soon to come) DynaActionForm. My end goal is to have one generic form bean (that will work for all actions). For such a generic form bean to handle multi-level properties such as "myProp{MyPropClass}.subProp", it has to infer and initialize the first property, so that the setter on the subProp can be invoked. I am interested in knowing your thoughts and opinions on this. If it does work out and I happen to implement it, I will provide a patch. Thank you all for the great work !
