Please download the latest from http://cvs.apache.org/builds/jakarta-commons/nightly/commons-lang/ I am posting a follow up message on commons-dev with a proposal on an extension to ToStringBuilder if you are interested.

However my commons-lang-1.0.1.jar doesn't have the class ReflectionToStringBuilder. Is that class new and not yet released? Also your example requires one to know the field name ["myDate"]. To avoid that I'm thinking I'll do something like if (java.util.Date.class.equals(field.getType())) {...} instead of if ("myDate".equals(field.getName())) {...} -Brian > Here is one option below.
