Creating a DynaBean from an ActionForm on the fly

[Scott Van Wart <sc...@indosoft.com>]

Is it possible to get a DynaBean object from an ActionForm 
programmatically?  I need to create a copy of a form, but cloneBean 
isn't working.  I have a map-based nested bean (which lets me do stuff 
like 'myform.child(ABC).name), but cloneBean does a SHALLOW (argh!) copy 
of the map so the original and the clone have the same map values.

Hi
Look at common beanutils documentation. There is something called
WrapDynaBean<http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/beanutils/commons-beanutils-1.7.0/docs/api/org/apache/commons/beanutils/WrapDynaBean.html>
.
