[jira] [Commented] (SANDBOX-396) [BeanUtils2] Implement clone() on DefaultBeanAccessor

["Simone Tripodi (Commented) (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SANDBOX-396?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13212981#comment-13212981 ] 

Simone Tripodi commented on SANDBOX-396:
----------------------------------------

patch looks good, anyway:

{quote}
+        @SuppressWarnings( "unchecked" )
+        B clone = (B) bean.getClass().newInstance();
+        DefaultBeanAccessor<B> cloneAccessor = new DefaultBeanAccessor<B>( clone );
+        cloneAccessor.populate( this.describe() );
+        return clone;
{quote}

 * it is a good practice adding a comment that justifies why the unchecked warning can be suppressed;

 * the {{this.}} prefix can be omitted.

We could even reuse the {{BeanUtils.on( beanType ).newInstance()}} that would help removing the duplicated code.

Can you please apply these modifications and resubmit the patch?
TIA,
-Simo

> Implement {{clone()}} on DefaultBeanAccessor:
> * create a new instance of the same type as the bean encapsulated by the Accessor
> * create a {{DefaultBeanAccessor}} for the new instance
> * call populate on the new {{DefaultBeanAccessor}} with {{this.describe()}} as argument
> * return the clone
