BeanUtils提供了对java反射和自省API的包装,其主要目的是利用反射机制对JavaBean的属性进行处理。它里面还有很多工具类,这里我们介绍一下copyProperties。我们知道,一个JavaBean通常包含了大量的属性,很多情况下,对JavaBean的处理导致大量get/set代码堆积,增加了代码长度和阅读代码的难度。
如果有两个具有很多相同属性的JavaBean,传统的方式对属性逐个赋值:
user.setName(tempUser.getName());
user.setAge(tempUser.getAge());
如果按照上面那种赋值方式,是非常麻烦的,而且代码估计会很多
如果用copyProperties,直接一行代码,然后就搞定了。
BeanUtils.copyProperties("转换后的类", "待转换的类");
如:把userTemp赋值给user
BeanUtils.copyProperties(userTemp,user);;
有几点我们需要注意:
BeanUtils.copyProperties(a, b);
b中的存在的属性,a中一定要有,但是a中可以有多余的属性;
a、 b中的属性要名字相同,才能被赋值,不然的话需要手动赋值;
Spring的BeanUtils的CopyProperties方法需要对应的属性有getter和setter方法;
如果存在属性完全相同的内部类,但是不是同一个内部类,即分别属于各自的内部类,则spring会认为属性不同,不会copy;
源码
最后附上源码,方便大家可以更好地理解他的属性;
/**
* Copy the property values of the given source bean into the given target bean.
* <p>Note: The source and target classes do not have to match or even be derived
* from each other, as long as the properties match. Any bean properties that the
* source bean exposes but the target bean does not will silently be ignored.
* @param source the source bean
* @param target the target bean
* @param editable the class (or interface) to restrict property setting to
* @param ignoreProperties array of property names to ignore
* @throws BeansException if the copying failed
* @see BeanWrapper
*/
private static void copyProperties(Object source, Object target, @Nullable Class<?> editable,
@Nullable String... ignoreProperties) throws BeansException {
Assert.notNull(source, "Source must not be null");
Assert.notNull(target, "Target must not be null");
Class<?> actualEditable = target.getClass();
if (editable != null) {
if (!editable.isInstance(target)) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Target class [" + target.getClass().getName() +
"] not assignable to Editable class [" + editable.getName() + "]");
}
actualEditable = editable;
}
PropertyDescriptor[] targetPds = getPropertyDescriptors(actualEditable);
List<String> ignoreList = (ignoreProperties != null ? Arrays.asList(ignoreProperties) : null);
for (PropertyDescriptor targetPd : targetPds) {
Method writeMethod = targetPd.getWriteMethod();
if (writeMethod != null && (ignoreList == null || !ignoreList.contains(targetPd.getName()))) {
PropertyDescriptor sourcePd = getPropertyDescriptor(source.getClass(), targetPd.getName());
if (sourcePd != null) {
Method readMethod = sourcePd.getReadMethod();
if (readMethod != null &&
ClassUtils.isAssignable(writeMethod.getParameterTypes()[0], readMethod.getReturnType())) {
try {
if (!Modifier.isPublic(readMethod.getDeclaringClass().getModifiers())) {
readMethod.setAccessible(true);
}
Object value = readMethod.invoke(source);
if (!Modifier.isPublic(writeMethod.getDeclaringClass().getModifiers())) {
writeMethod.setAccessible(true);
}
writeMethod.invoke(target, value);
}
catch (Throwable ex) {
throw new FatalBeanException(
"Could not copy property '" + targetPd.getName() + "' from source to target", ex);
}
}
}
}
}
}
spring和apache的copy属性的方法源和目的参数的位置正好相反,所以导包和调用的时候都要注意一下。
