Generic tools that can be used in any context.
PLEASE NOTE: this is a temporary fork to unblock projects migrating to Jakarta,
but I won't continue maintaining it in the future as the Velocity team doesn't
understand the value of Jakarta. I strongly suggest you plan a switch to a more
modern template engine such as Thymeleaf.
The newest version!

/**
*
* This tool is meant to simplify reflective lookup of information about
* a {@link Class} and its {@link Field}s, {@link Method}s, and {@link Constructor}s.
* This is ideally aimed at those wishing to generate documentation, demo code, or
* other content based on runtime reflection of a specified Class or Classes. It was not
* designed with reflective execution of code in mind and thus provides no facilities
* for code execution, nor direct access to the actual methods, constructors or fields
* of the class being inspected.
*
*
* Example tools.xml config:
* <tools>
* <toolbox scope="application">
* <tool class="org.apache.velocity.tools.generic.ClassTool"
* inspect="com.org.Foo"/>
* </toolbox>
* </tools>
*
*
* If no Class to be inspected is specified, the default is java.lang.Object.
