public Class getPropertyType(String propertyName) throws BeansException
Determine the property type for the specified property,
either checking the property descriptor or checking the value
in case of an indexed or mapped element.

 public Object getPropertyValue(String propertyName) throws BeansException
Get the current value of the specified property.

 public boolean isReadableProperty(String propertyName)
Determine whether the specified property is readable.
Returns false if the property doesn't exist.

 public boolean isWritableProperty(String propertyName)
Determine whether the specified property is writable.
Returns false if the property doesn't exist.

 public  void setPropertyValue(PropertyValue pv) throws BeansException
Set the specified value as current property value.

 public  void setPropertyValue(String propertyName,
    Object value) throws BeansException
Set the specified value as current property value.

 public  void setPropertyValues(Map map) throws BeansException
Perform a batch update from a Map.
Bulk updates from PropertyValues are more powerful: This method is
provided for convenience. Behavior will be identical to that of
the #setPropertyValues(PropertyValues)  method.

 public  void setPropertyValues(PropertyValues pvs) throws BeansException
The preferred way to perform a batch update.
Note that performing a batch update differs from performing a single update,
in that an implementation of this class will continue to update properties
if a recoverable error (such as a type mismatch, but not an
invalid field name or the like) is encountered, throwing a
PropertyBatchUpdateException  containing all the individual errors.
This exception can be examined later to see all binding errors.
Properties that were successfully updated remain changed.
Does not allow unknown fields or invalid fields.

 public  void setPropertyValues(PropertyValues pvs,
    boolean ignoreUnknown) throws BeansException
Perform a batch update with more control over behavior.
Note that performing a batch update differs from performing a single update,
in that an implementation of this class will continue to update properties
if a recoverable error (such as a type mismatch, but not an
invalid field name or the like) is encountered, throwing a
PropertyBatchUpdateException  containing all the individual errors.
This exception can be examined later to see all binding errors.
Properties that were successfully updated remain changed.

 public  void setPropertyValues(PropertyValues pvs,
    boolean ignoreUnknown,
    boolean ignoreInvalid) throws BeansException
Perform a batch update with full control over behavior.
Note that performing a batch update differs from performing a single update,
in that an implementation of this class will continue to update properties
if a recoverable error (such as a type mismatch, but not an
invalid field name or the like) is encountered, throwing a
PropertyBatchUpdateException  containing all the individual errors.
This exception can be examined later to see all binding errors.
Properties that were successfully updated remain changed.
