/**
* <p>Assists in implementing {@link Object#toString()} methods.</p>
*
* <p>This class enables a good and consistent <code>toString()</code> to be built for any
* class or object. This class aims to simplify the process by:</p>
* <ul>
* <li>allowing field names</li>
* <li>handling all types consistently</li>
* <li>handling nulls consistently</li>
* <li>outputting arrays and multi-dimensional arrays</li>
* <li>enabling the detail level to be controlled for Objects and Collections</li>
* <li>handling class hierarchies</li>
* </ul>
*
* <p>To use this class write code as follows:</p>
*
* <pre>
* public class Person {
* String name;
* int age;
* boolean smoker;
*
* ...
*
* public String toString() {
* return new ToStringBuilder(this).
* append("name", name).
* append("age", age).
* append("smoker", smoker).
* toString();
* }
* }
* </pre>
*
* <p>This will produce a toString of the format:
* <code>Person@7f54[name=Stephen,age=29,smoker=false]</code></p>
*
* <p>To add the superclass <code>toString</code>, use {@link #appendSuper}.
* To append the <code>toString</code> from an object that is delegated
* to (or any other object), use {@link #appendToString}.</p>
*
* <p>Alternatively, there is a method that uses reflection to determine
* the fields to test. Because these fields are usually private, the method,
* <code>reflectionToString</code>, uses <code>AccessibleObject.setAccessible</code> to
* change the visibility of the fields. This will fail under a security manager,
* unless the appropriate permissions are set up correctly. It is also
* slower than testing explicitly.</p>
*
* <p>A typical invocation for this method would look like:</p>
*
* <pre>
* public String toString() {
* return ToStringBuilder.reflectionToString(this);
* }
* </pre>
*
* <p>You can also use the builder to debug 3rd party objects:</p>
*
* <pre>
* System.out.println("An object: " + ToStringBuilder.reflectionToString(anObject));
* </pre>
*
* <p>The exact format of the <code>toString</code> is determined by
* the {@link ToStringStyle} passed into the constructor.</p>
*
