Class DefaultBeanIntrospector

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    BeanIntrospector
    public class DefaultBeanIntrospector
extends java.lang.Object
implements BeanIntrospector

    The default BeanIntrospector implementation.

    This class implements a default bean introspection algorithm based on the JDK classes in the java.beans package. It discovers properties conforming to the Java Beans specification.

    This class is a singleton. The single instance can be obtained using the INSTANCE field. It does not define any state and thus can be shared by arbitrary clients. PropertyUtils per default uses this instance as its only BeanIntrospector object.
