public interface	BeanMetadataElement Interface to be implemented by bean metadata elements that carry a configuration source object.
public interface	BeanWrapper The central interface of Spring's low-level JavaBeans infrastructure.
public interface	ConfigurablePropertyAccessor Interface that encapsulates configuration methods for a PropertyAccessor.
public interface	Mergeable Interface representing an object whose value set can be merged with that of a parent object.
public interface	PropertyAccessor Common interface for classes that can access named properties (such as bean properties of an object or fields in an object).
public interface	PropertyEditorRegistrar Interface for strategies that register custom `property editors` with a `property editor registry`.
public interface	PropertyEditorRegistry Encapsulates methods for registering JavaBeans `PropertyEditors`.
public interface	PropertyValues Holder containing one or more `PropertyValue` objects, typically comprising one update for a specific target bean.

Class Summary

Modifier and Type	Class and Description
public abstract class	AbstractNestablePropertyAccessor A basic `ConfigurablePropertyAccessor` that provides the necessary infrastructure for all typical use cases.
public abstract class	AbstractPropertyAccessor Abstract implementation of the `PropertyAccessor` interface.
public class	BeanInstantiationException Exception thrown when instantiation of a bean failed.
public class	BeanMetadataAttribute Holder for a key-value style attribute that is part of a bean definition.
public class	BeanMetadataAttributeAccessor Extension of `org.springframework.core.AttributeAccessorSupport`, holding attributes as `BeanMetadataAttribute` objects in order to keep track of the definition source.
public abstract class	BeansException Abstract superclass for all exceptions thrown in the beans package and subpackages.
public abstract class	BeanUtils Static convenience methods for JavaBeans: for instantiating beans, checking bean property types, copying bean properties, etc. Mainly for internal use within the framework, but to some degree also useful for application classes.
pack-priv class	BeanUtilsRuntimeHints `RuntimeHintsRegistrar` to register hints for popular conventions in `BeanUtils#findEditorByConvention(Class)`.
public class	BeanWrapperImpl Default `BeanWrapper` implementation that should be sufficient for all typical use cases.
public class	CachedIntrospectionResults Internal class that caches JavaBeans `java.beans.PropertyDescriptor` information for a Java class.
public class	ConversionNotSupportedException Exception thrown when no suitable editor or converter can be found for a bean property.
public class	DirectFieldAccessor `ConfigurablePropertyAccessor` implementation that directly accesses instance fields.
pack-priv class	ExtendedBeanInfo Decorator for a standard `BeanInfo` object, e.g. as created by `Introspector#getBeanInfo(Class)`, designed to discover and register static and/or non-void returning setter methods.
public class	ExtendedBeanInfoFactory Extension of `StandardBeanInfoFactory` that supports "non-standard" JavaBeans setter methods through introspection by Spring's (package-visible) `ExtendedBeanInfo` implementation.
public class	FatalBeanException Thrown on an unrecoverable problem encountered in the beans packages or sub-packages, e.g. bad class or field.
pack-priv class	GenericTypeAwarePropertyDescriptor Extension of the standard JavaBeans `PropertyDescriptor` class, overriding `getPropertyType()` such that a generically declared type variable will be resolved against the containing bean class.
public class	InvalidPropertyException Exception thrown when referring to an invalid bean property.
public class	MethodInvocationException Thrown when a bean property getter or setter method throws an exception, analogous to an InvocationTargetException.
public class	MutablePropertyValues The default implementation of the `PropertyValues` interface.
public class	NotReadablePropertyException Exception thrown on an attempt to get the value of a property that isn't readable, because there's no getter method.
public class	NotWritablePropertyException Exception thrown on an attempt to set the value of a property that is not writable (typically because there is no setter method).
public class	NullValueInNestedPathException Exception thrown when navigation of a valid nested property path encounters a NullPointerException.
public abstract class	PropertyAccessException Superclass for exceptions related to a property access, such as type mismatch or invocation target exception.
public class	PropertyAccessorFactory Simple factory facade for obtaining `PropertyAccessor` instances, in particular for `BeanWrapper` instances.
public abstract class	PropertyAccessorUtils Utility methods for classes that perform bean property access according to the `PropertyAccessor` interface.
public class	PropertyBatchUpdateException Combined exception, composed of individual PropertyAccessException instances.
pack-priv abstract class	PropertyDescriptorUtils Common delegate methods for Spring's internal `PropertyDescriptor` implementations.
public class	PropertyEditorRegistrySupport Base implementation of the `PropertyEditorRegistry` interface.
public abstract class	PropertyMatches Helper class for calculating property matches, according to a configurable distance.
public class	PropertyValue Object to hold information and value for an individual bean property.
public class	PropertyValuesEditor `Editor` for a `PropertyValues` object.
pack-priv class	SimpleBeanInfoFactory `BeanInfoFactory` implementation that bypasses the standard `java.beans.Introspector` for faster introspection, reduced to basic property determination (as commonly needed in Spring).
public class	SimpleTypeConverter Simple implementation of the `TypeConverter` interface that does not operate on a specific target object.
public class	StandardBeanInfoFactory `BeanInfoFactory` implementation that performs standard `java.beans.Introspector` inspection.
pack-priv class	TypeConverterDelegate Internal helper class for converting property values to target types.
public abstract class	TypeConverterSupport Base implementation of the `TypeConverter` interface, using a package-private delegate.
public class	TypeMismatchException Exception thrown on a type mismatch when trying to set a bean property.
