Kiren-
I assume you mean BeanUtils.copyProperties(...) right?
If so, I believe the reason you cannot use it is because
BeanUtils.copyProperties(...) performs a shallow copy and per the
javadocs (HTML tags removed): "...and so complex properties (for
example, nested ones) will not be copied."
I would suggest removing it from the Action code by creating a utility
class and implement your own copy() method. Say, a static "duplication"
method that takes an instance of your bean as a parameter and returns a
new instance of the same bean. I'm curious as to why you're using
arrays as opposed to the Collections framework....
I don't believe that any copy methods in the J2SE are deep copy methods,
so if this is what you need, then a static utility method is probably
your best bet.
cheers,

Hi
I've got a domain object which stored an indexed array of objects.

exposures[type].otherLenders = otherLenders;
}
-->
Form extract:
public float getOtherLendersUtilisation(){return
OtherLendersUtilisation;
}
----
In my Action class I have to say the following:
groupExposures.setOtherLenders(groupExposuresForm.getOtherLendersUtilisa
tion(),LimitTypes.UTILISATION);
------
The way this class is set up, I cannot use BeanUtils.copy() to copy the
values across. The Action class is huge because of this and it was quite
tedious putting in the code. Is there a quicker, easier way to do this?
