Package Specification

POJO State : observer everythign everywhere

This library provides with implementation and APIs for observing POJO state applicable in various uses cases.

Typical usage scenario is:

        
        // create new decorator object
        Decorator decorator = new SnapshotDecorator();
        
        // set imutable properties
        decorator.setSelector( new BeanSelector() );
        decorator.setFormat( new PropertiesStateFormat() );

        // decorate a POJO      
        // this object can be used to decorate other POJOs as well
        State state = decorator.decorate( myPOJO );

        // print the state to the stdout
        System.out( state.toString() );
