Nested properties do not work for bean destination and mapped original





------- Additional Comments From rdonkin@apache.org  2002-12-01 22:43 -------
this is the contract of copyProperties (as specified in the java docs). to quote craig:

"The original intent was to perform a "shallow copy" of the properties in
an origin bean to a destination bean, in a manner reminiscent of what the
java.lang.Object.clone() method is supposed to do."

copyProperties will not to extended to provide this functionality. we are investigating 
other ways to provide this functionality, though.
