The Clazz is a subclass of Class comment is effectively correct. Clazz ~= Class/DynaClass ClazzProperty ~= Field/DynaProperty ClazzOperation ~= Method Bean ~= Object/DynaBean Property ~= Get/Set method + Object (a delegate) Operation ~= Method + Object (a delegate) Dmitri and I would like to use these names and definitions for the moment. Once we have some real code to back them up it will be more obvious if there are better names. (In particular the distinction of Field vs Property to come from this thread is interesting) Stephen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:commons-dev-unsubscribe@;jakarta.apache.org> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:commons-dev-help@;jakarta.apache.org>
