> I would like to suggest to add a findPropertyDescriptor variant that takes a class instead of a bean as an argument. This is useful for situations where I want to deal with abstract classes and their properties as  I cannot instantiate them to use findPropertyDescriptor(Object, String)
> 	public PropertyDescriptor findPropertyDescriptor(Class clazz, String propertyName) {
> 		PropertyDescriptor[] descriptors = PropertyUtils.getPropertyDescriptors(clazz);
> 		for (int i = 0; i < descriptors.length; i++)
>             if (propertyName.equals(descriptors[i].getName()))
>                 return (descriptors[i]);
> 		return null;
> 	}
> Best regards,
> Matthias
