GutoVeronezi opened a new pull request #849: URL: https://github.com/apache/commons-lang/pull/849
As commented in JIRA issue [LANG-1662](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-1662) and the maillist ([here](https://lists.apache.org/thread/348sxhc277r45hkwt39rpdwxmxt5lrrs) and [here](https://lists.apache.org/thread/4nxrlfrzssv5w09c2gs9sphn7rgoc613)), the class **ReflectionToStringBuilder** has methods to exclude fields from *toString*; If we have an object with several fields and want to reflect only some, we have to list all the fields that we don't want to reflect and pass to **excludeFieldNames**. To examplify what I mean: - In a case which we need to print only the fields `a`, `b` and `e` from the class `UseCase`, the current solution is: ```java Example example = new UseCase.Example(); example.setA("test"); example.setB(1); example.setC(1.1); example.setD(true); example.setE(false); example.setF(false); example.setG(true); ToStringBuilder toStringBuilder = new ToStringBuilder(example, ToStringStyle.JSON_STYLE); toStringBuilder.append("a", example.getA()); toStringBuilder.append("b", example.getB()); toStringBuilder.append("e", example.isE()); System.out.println(toStringBuilder.build()); ``` -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
