Beanutils.populate()

[ltorrence]

Is there any way to have Beanutils.populate call a setter method with a date
signature on a bean?

I'm trying to populate a bean with *lots* of properties, some of which are
dates stored in string format. My source bean has dates in date objects.

Target bean fields/methods:

        String endDate = null;

        public String getEndDate()..

        public void setEndDate(String endDate)

        public void setEndDate(Date d_endDate)


Source bean fields/methods:

        Date endDate = null;

        public Date getEndDate()..

        public void setEndDate(Date endDate)
