Clone a bean based on the available property getters and setters, * even if the bean class itself does not implement Cloneable.

* *

Copy property values from the origin bean to the destination bean * for all cases where the property names are the same. For each * property, a conversion is attempted as necessary. All combinations of * standard JavaBeans and DynaBeans as origin and destination are * supported. Properties that exist in the origin bean, but do not exist * in the destination bean (or are read-only in the destination bean) are * silently ignored.

* *

If the origin "bean" is actually a Map, it is assumed * to contain String-valued simple property names as the keys, pointing at * the corresponding property values that will be converted (if necessary) * and set in the destination bean. Note that this method * is intended to perform a "shallow copy" of the properties and so complex * properties (for example, nested ones) will not be copied.

* *

This method differs from populate(), which * was primarily designed for populating JavaBeans from the map of request * parameters retrieved on an HTTP request, is that no scalar->indexed * or indexed->scalar manipulations are performed. If the origin property * is indexed, the destination property must be also.

* *

If you know that no type conversions are required, the * copyProperties() method in {@link PropertyUtils} will * execute faster than this method.

* *

Populate the JavaBeans properties of the specified bean, based on * the specified name/value pairs.

* *

The particular setter method to be called for each property is * determined using the usual JavaBeans introspection mechanisms. Thus, * you may identify custom setter methods using a BeanInfo class that is * associated with the class of the bean itself.
