New Revision: 517894

URL: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&rev=517894
Log:
Adding note to Javadoc that copyProperties is for copying properties and not 
for copying the contents of arrays or Lists. I pondered adding that 
functionality, but there's already some weird Map->Bean functionality in place 
and I felt it would just confuse things as I would have had to somewhat fix 
that to allow for Map->Map copying.
