  /**
   * <code>Equals</code> generation routines. 
   * <p>
   * This class provides methods to build a good equals method for any class.  
   * It follows rules laid out in Effective Java, by Joshua Bloch. In particular
   * the rule for comparing <code>doubles </code>, <code>floats</code>, and 
   * arrays can be tricky. Also, making  sure that <code>equals()</code>
   * and <code>hashCode()</code> are consistent can be difficult.
   * <p>
   * Two object that compare as equals must generate the same hash code. But two
   * objects with the same hash code do not have to be equal.
   * <p>
   * All relevant fields should be included in the calculation of equals. Derived
   * fields may be ignored. In particular, any field used in generating a hash 
   * code must be used in the equals method, and vice versa.
   * <p>
   * Typical use for the code is as follows:
   * <code>
   * public boolean equals(Object o) {
   *   if (!o instanceof MyClass) {
   *    return false;
   *   }
   *  MyClass rhs = (MyClass) o;
   *  return new EqualsBuilder()
   *                 .test(field1, rhs.field1)
   *                 .test(field2, rhs.field2)
   *                 .test(field3, rhs.field3)
   *                 .isEquals();
   *  }
   * </code>
   * <p>
   * Alternatively, there is a method that uses reflection to determine
   * the fields to test. Because these fields are usually private, the method, 
   * <code>reflectionTest</code>, uses <code>Field.setAccessible</code> to change
   * the visibility of the fields. This will fail under a security manager, 
   * unless the appropriate permissions are set. It is also slower than testing 
   * explicitly.
   * <p>
   * A typical invocation for this method would look like:
   * <code>
   * public boolean equals(Object o) {
   *   return EqualsBuilder.reflectionEquals(this, obj);
   * }
   * </code>
