/**
 * 

 * A specialized implementation of {@code DefaultParametersHandler} that copies
 * the properties of a {@link BuilderParameters} object (passed at construction
 * time) onto the object to be initialized.
 * 

 * 

 * Using this handler implementation makes specifying default values pretty
 * straight-forward: Just create a corresponding parameters object, initialize
 * it as desired, and pass it to this class. When invoked the handler uses
 * functionality from Commons BeanUtils to copy all properties defined
 * in the associated parameters object onto the target object. This is based on
 * reflection. Properties not available for the target object are silently
 * ignored. If an exception occurs during the copy operation, it is re-thrown as
 * a runtime exception.
 * 

 * 

 * Note that there is no default way to create a defensive copy of the passed in
 * parameters object; therefore, the reference is stored. This makes it possible
 * to change the parameters object later on, and the changes will be effective
 * when initializing objects afterwards. Client code should not rely on this
 * feature.
 * 

 *
 * @since 2.0
