An alternative would be the COMMONS-USER list, but many Struts folks use
this library as well.

It's pretty tough to help without knowing what "having trouble" means.
Are you getting exceptions (if so, what's the stack trace)? Are
properties not getting copied? ???

PropertyUtils.copyProperties() will be faster than
BeanUtils.copyProperties() because it won't waste time trying to figure
out what conversions are necessary. Therefore, you should use the
PropertyUtils version when you can (i.e. when all the property types
match).
