* Typical use for the code is as follows:
- *
+ *
+ *
*
* public boolean equals(Object o) {
* if (!o instanceof MyClass) {
* return false;
* }
* MyClass rhs = (MyClass) o;
* return new EqualsBuilder()
- * .test(field1, rhs.field1)
- * .test(field2, rhs.field2)
- * .test(field3, rhs.field3)
+ * .append(field1, rhs.field1)
+ * .append(field2, rhs.field2)
+ * .append(field3, rhs.field3)
* .isEquals();
* }
- *
* Alternatively, there is a method that uses reflection to determine
* the fields to test. Because these fields are usually private, the method,
- * reflectionTest, uses Field.setAccessible to change
+ * reflectionEquals, uses Field.setAccessible to change
* the visibility of the fields. This will fail under a security manager,
* unless the appropriate permissions are set. It is also slower than testing
* explicitly.
*
* A typical invocation for this method would look like:
