[jira] [Commented] (LANG-1466) new property "omitNullValues" ToStringBuilder

["Liran Mendelovich (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-1466?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17371267#comment-17371267 ] 

Liran Mendelovich commented on LANG-1466:
-----------------------------------------

Out of the box implementation exists:

_ReflectionToStringBuilder.toString(new Pojo(), ToStringStyle.DEFAULT_STYLE, true, false, *true*, null)_

Output is as requested:

{{general.Pojo@3532ec19[description=Manchester,id=1]}}

Using:
_public static String toString( final T object, final ToStringStyle style, final boolean outputTransients, final boolean outputStatics, final boolean *excludeNullValues*, final Class<? super T> reflectUpToClass)_
