[jira] Created: (LANG-332) EqualsBuilder to alternatively use method properties

EqualsBuilder to alternatively use method properties
----------------------------------------------------

                 Key: LANG-332
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-332
             Project: Commons Lang
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 2.3
            Reporter: Paul Benedict
             Fix For: 3.0


While it is very nice reflection can be used to build a nice equals method, the strategy to focus on private properties is non-negotiable. This strategy is incompatible with CGLIB proxies which rely on method invocations to delegate to the properties of the inner target. I would prefer a switch to dynamically invoke public get* methods over direct property access.

PS: Same thoughts on ReflectionToStringBuilder and HashCodeBuilder
