New Revision: 1798735

URL: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?rev=1798735&view=rev
Log:
Code enhancement:  Add two new methods to Utils:
* defaultToString() -> returns string description of object just as Object.toString() would.
* simpleDefaultToString() -> same as above, except only the simple class name is used.
