| Most Java developers are used to creating Java classes that conform to the JavaBeans naming patterns for |
| property getters and setters. It is natural to then access these methods directly, using calls to the |
| corresponding getXxx and setXxx methods. However, there are some occasions where dynamic access to Java |
| object properties (without compiled-in knowledge of the property getter and setter methods to be called) |
| is needed. Example use cases include: |
| |
| * Building scripting languages that interact with the Java object model (such as the Bean Scripting |
| Framework). |
| * Building template language processors for web presentation and similar uses (such as JSP or Velocity). |
| * Building custom tag libraries for JSP and XSP environments (such as Jakarta Taglibs, Struts, Cocoon). |
| * Consuming XML-based configuration resources (such as Ant build scripts, web application deployment |
| descriptors, Tomcat's server.xml file). |
| |
| The Java language provides Reflection and Introspection APIs (see the java.lang.reflect and java.beans |
| packages in the JDK Javadocs). However, these APIs can be quite complex to understand and utilize. |
| The BeanUtils component provides easy-to-use wrappers around these capabilities. |
