BeanUtils

 Beanutils _ apache开发，专门用于操作javabean.

1.   在beanUtils工具包中，记下一个核心类：  BeanUtils

最常用的两个静态方法：

static void	setProperty(Object bean, String name, Object value) Set the specified property value, performing type conversions as required to conform to the type of the destination property. Parameters: bean - Bean on which setting is to be performed name - Property name (can be nested/indexed/mapped/combo) value - Value to be set
static void	populate(Object bean, Map properties) Populate the JavaBeans properties of the specified bean, based on the specified name/value pairs. Parameters: bean - JavaBean whose properties are being populated properties - Map keyed by property name, with the corresponding (String or String[]) value(s) to be set

剩下的方法：

static Object	cloneBean(Object bean) Clone a bean based on the available property getters and setters, even if the bean class itself does not implement Cloneable.
static void	copyProperties(Object dest, Object orig) Copy property values from the origin bean to the destination bean for all cases where the property names are the same.
static void	copyProperty(Object bean, String name, Object value) Copy the specified property value to the specified destination bean, performing any type conversion that is required.
static Map	createCache() Create a cache.
static Map	describe(Object bean) Return the entire set of properties for which the specified bean provides a read method.
static String[]	getArrayProperty(Object bean, String name) Return the value of the specified array property of the specified bean, as a String array.
static boolean	getCacheFast(Map map) Return whether a Map is fast
static int	getDebug() Deprecated. BeanUtils now uses commons-logging for all log messages. Use your favorite logging tool to configure logging for this class.
static String	getIndexedProperty(Object bean, String name) Return the value of the specified indexed property of the specified bean, as a String.
static String	getIndexedProperty(Object bean, String name, int index) Return the value of the specified indexed property of the specified bean, as a String.
static String	getMappedProperty(Object bean, String name) Return the value of the specified indexed property of the specified bean, as a String.
static String	getMappedProperty(Object bean, String name, String key) Return the value of the specified mapped property of the specified bean, as a String.
static String	getNestedProperty(Object bean, String name) Return the value of the (possibly nested) property of the specified name, for the specified bean, as a String.
static String	getProperty(Object bean, String name) Return the value of the specified property of the specified bean, no matter which property reference format is used, as a String.
static String	getSimpleProperty(Object bean, String name) Return the value of the specified simple property of the specified bean, converted to a String.
static boolean	initCause(Throwable throwable, Throwable cause) If we're running on JDK 1.4 or later, initialize the cause for the given throwable.
static void	setCacheFast(Map map, boolean fast) Set whether fast on a Map
static void	setDebug(int newDebug) Deprecated. BeanUtils now uses commons-logging for all log messages. Use your favorite logging tool to configure logging for this class.

2.Beanutils特点：

       1：提供了String到其他各种的自动的转换

              String-> int,Integer,double,- 到所以基本及它的对象类的转换。

、

2：JavaBean可以只提供setXxx方法而不提供getXxx方法也可以设置成功。

//以下是深入源码

       Object newValue =null;

        if (type.isArray() && (index < 0)) {// Scalar value into array

          . . .

        } else if (type.isArray()) {         // Indexed value into array

           . . .

        } else {                             // Value into scalar

            if (value instanceof String) {

                newValue = getConvertUtils().convert((String) value, type);

            } else if (value instanceof String[]) {

                newValue =getConvertUtils().convert(((String[])value)[0],

                                               type);

            } else {

                newValue = convert(value, type);

            }

       }

 

protected Object convert(Objectvalue, Class type) {

        Converter converter =getConvertUtils().lookup(type);

        if (converter != null) {

            log.trace("        USING CONVERTER " + converter);

            return converter.convert(type, value);

        } else {

            return value;

        }

}

 

public Converter lookup(Classclazz) {

        return ((Converter) converters.get(clazz));

}

 

public Object get(Objectkey) {

               return(map.get(key));

}

 3：级联设置

             

   4：批设置

              可以直接接收一个Map

      

 

  5：兼容数组到基本类型的转换

3.在beanutils中还有一个核心类：转换核心类ConvertUtils

    此类需要设置一次，在任意的地方，设置一次，对所有beantuisl有效：

    @Test

    public void testBeanUtils() throws Exception{

       //声明可以从String->Date转换

       ConvertUtils.register(new Converter() {

           @Override

           public Object convert(Class type, Object value) {

              System.err.println("开始转换:"+type+","+value);

              if(type==Date.class){

                  SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");

                  try {

                     return sdf.parse(""+value);

                  } catch (ParseException e) {

                     e.printStackTrace();

                  }

              }

              return null;

           }

       }, Date.class);

       //----

        Object o = new Emp();

        BeanUtils.setProperty(o,"brith","2008-09-12 12:56:23");

        System.err.println(o);

      

    }
