Commons-beanutils使用指南

一、commons-beanutils的简要介绍

commons-beanutils是一组使用程序的集合,它能容易的处理bean及属性.该工具允许你以属性名检索bean属性、根据属性排列bean、将bean转换为Map等等。

二、实例说明

1. Author

package org.abu.commons.beanutils;

import java.util.Date;

public class Author {
    private String name;
    private String email;
    private Date birth;

    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }

    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

    public String getEmail() {
        return email;
    }

    public void setEmail(String email) {
        this.email = email;
    }

    public Date getBirth() {
        return birth;
    }

    public void setBirth(Date birth) {
        this.birth = birth;
    }

}

 

2.Book

package org.abu.commons.beanutils;

import java.util.Date;
import java.util.List;

public class Book {

    private String isbn;
    private String bookName;
    private List<Author> authors;
    private String publisher;
    private Date publishDate;

    public String getIsbn() {
        return isbn;
    }

    public void setIsbn(String isbn) {
        this.isbn = isbn;
    }

    public String getBookName() {
        return bookName;
    }

    public void setBookName(String bookName) {
        this.bookName = bookName;
    }

    public List<Author> getAuthors() {
        return authors;
    }

    public void setAuthors(List<Author> authors) {
        this.authors = authors;
    }

    public String getPublisher() {
        return publisher;
    }

    public void setPublisher(String publisher) {
        this.publisher = publisher;
    }

    public Date getPublishDate() {
        return publishDate;
    }

    public void setPublishDate(Date publishDate) {
        this.publishDate = publishDate;
    }

}

 

3.测试

 

package org.abu.commons.beanutils;

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Date;
import java.util.List;

import org.apache.commons.beanutils.PropertyUtils;

public class BeanUtilsTest {

    private Book book = new Book();
    private Book copiedBook = new Book();   
   
    private List<Author> authors = new ArrayList<Author>();

    public BeanUtilsTest() {

        // 定义三个作者
        Author author1 = new Author();
        Author author2 = new Author();
        Author author3 = new Author();

        author1.setName("Liky");
        author1.setEmail("liky@yahoo.com");
        author1.setBirth(new Date());

        author2.setName("John");
        author2.setEmail("john@yahoo.com");
        author2.setBirth(new Date());

        author3.setName("Susan");
        author3.setEmail("susan@yahoo.com");
        author3.setBirth(new Date());

        // book属性
        authors.add(author1);
        authors.add(author2);
        authors.add(author3);

        book.setAuthors(authors);
        book.setIsbn("ISBN 7-096-13964-4");
        book.setBookName("Struts2 in Action");
        book.setPublisher("O'Reilly Media Inc.");
        book.setPublishDate(new Date());
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        BeanUtilsTest but = new BeanUtilsTest();

        //but.getProperty();
        but.copyProperties();
    }

    /**
     * 演示使用PropertyUtils来获得属性,
     * 注意获得属性有三种方式,分别是:
     * 1.getSimpleProperty 用来获取基本数据类型的属性
     * 2.getMappedProperty 用来获取Map类型的属性,
     * 例如:Book有一个Map类型的author,而author中有三个key,其中一个是name.
     * 那么就可以这样来使用getMappedProperty(book, "author", "name");
     * 3.getNestedProperty 用来获取嵌套的属性.
     * 也就是说如果Book有一个Author的属性,而Author又是另一个Bean,Author有个属性是name,
     * 那么就可以这样来使用getNestedProperty(book,"author.name");
