Description Andi Bur CLA 2012-07-06 10:55:21 EDT 
Creating new instances of a class requires to find the best matching constructor. java.lang.Class#getConstructor requires to supply the an array with the exact types required by the resulting constructor. Hence additional effort is required to find the best matching constructor if the exact parameter types are not known at compile time. This should be done in the BeanUtility class.
