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

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-332?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Henri Yandell updated LANG-332:
-------------------------------

    Fix Version/s:     (was: 3.0)
                   3.1

Moving to 3.1. I don't think there's any obvious backwards compatibility issue, and as there's no code I've no urge to suggest we dig into this pre-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
