[lang] CloneUtils

2006-07-02 Thread Oliver Heger
Hi, I just need a helper method for cloning an object. I vaguely remembered that a while ago there was discussion about this topic. I found this link [1]. Has there anything been done in this area yet? Thanks. Oliver [1]

I generally like small classes with few methods, but a significant exception to that is utility classes. In this case I prefer the kind of thing we've done with StringUtils. That way, when there is string manipulation to be done, I know exactly where to go to look, without having to drag out

I like the idea of multiple methods with nice names. I'm not averse to a CloneUtils class (it could be argued that StringUtils is too big as one class, or that it is most convenient as one class...) Perhaps others can comment on the location of the new methods. Stephen Kevin Gessner wrote:

that restriction. It only requires that the object be serializable. I think this code is general enough to live in Commons Lang. -Original Message- From: Kyle Miller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 06, 2005 2:20 PM To: Jakarta Commons Developers List Subject: Re: [lang] CloneUtils I
