johan zahri resolved BEANUTILS-476.
-----------------------------------
    Resolution: Invalid

Turned out that when the property type does not match it is ignored.
i.e. when c.x has different type than that of b.x it is ignored

> In my case, I have a class B that extends A. property x defined as public in A but overridden as private in B with getters and setter defined as public.
> When performing a BeanUtils.copyProperties operation on instance of B as the source, the value of the target copies the value coming from A rather than from B which has a public getter and setter.
> I would assume that this should not be the correct behaviour?
> eg:
> A{public x;}
> B extends A
> {private x;public getX();public setX(x);}
> ((A)b).x=null
> b.x="val"
> BeanUtils.copyProperties (c,b);
> Result : c.x=null
> Expected: c.x="val"
