Much of this * code was originally included in <code>BeanUtils</code>, but has been * separated because of the volume of code involved. * <p/> * In general, the objects that are examined and modified using these * methods are expected to conform to the property getter and setter method * naming conventions described in the JavaBeans Specification (Version 1.0.1). * No data type conversions are performed, and there are no usage of any * <code>PropertyEditor</code> classes that have been registered, although * a convenient way to access the registered classes themselves is included. * <p/> * For the purposes of this class, five formats for referencing a particular * property value of a bean are defined, with the layout of an identifying * String in parentheses: * <ul> * <li><strong>Simple (<code>name</code>)</strong> - The specified * <code>name</code> identifies an individual property of a particular * JavaBean. The name of the actual getter or setter method to be used * is determined using standard JavaBeans instrospection, so that (unless * overridden by a <code>BeanInfo</code> class, a property named "xyz" * will have a getter method named <code>getXyz()</code> or (for boolean * properties only) <code>isXyz()</code>, and a setter method named * <code>setXyz()</code>.</li> * <li><strong>Nested (<code>name1.name2.name3</code>)</strong> The first * name element is used to select a property getter, as for simple * references above. The object returned for this property is then * consulted, using the same approach, for a property getter for a * property named <code>name2</code>, and so on. The property value that * is ultimately retrieved or modified is the one identified by the * last name element.</li> * <li><strong>Indexed (<code>name[index]</code>)</strong> - The underlying * property value is assumed to be an array, or this JavaBean is assumed * to have indexed property getter and setter methods. The appropriate * (zero-relative) entry in the array is selected. <code>List</code> * objects are now also supported for read/write. You simply need to define * a getter that returns the <code>List</code></li> * <li><strong>Mapped (<code>name(key)</code>)</strong> - The JavaBean * is assumed to have an property getter and setter methods with an * additional attribute of type <code>java.lang.String</code>.</li> * <li><strong>Combined (<code>name1.name2[index].name3(key)</code>)</strong> - * Combining mapped, nested, and indexed references is also * supported.</li> * </ul> * * @author Craig R.
