BULL - Bean Utils Light Library
Bean Utils Light Library
BULL is a Java Bean to Java Bean transformer that recursively copies data from one object to another, it is generic, flexible, reusable, configurable, and incredibly fast.
It’s the only library able to transform Mutable, Immutable, and Mixed bean without any custom configuration.

Suggestions
Some jdk versions remove the Java Bean constructor’s argument names from the compiled code and this may cause problems to the library.
On top of that, it’s suggested to configure the maven-compiler-plugin, inside your project, as follow:
<build>
...
<pluginManagement>
<plugins>
...
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>${maven.compiler.plugin.version}</version>
<configuration>
<source>${maven.compiler.source}</source>
<target>${maven.compiler.target}</target>
<parameters>true</parameters>
<forceJavacCompilerUse>true</forceJavacCompilerUse>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>

Bean transformation samples
Simple case:
public class FromBean { public class ToBean {
private final String name; @NotNull
private final BigInteger id; public BigInteger id;
private final List<FromSubBean> subBeanList; private final String name;
private List<String> list; private final List<String> list;
private final FromSubBean subObject; private final List<ToSubBean> subBeanList;
private ImmutableToSubFoo subObject;
// all constructors // all args constructor
// getters and setters... // getters and setters...
}
And one line code as:
ToBean toBean = beanUtils.getTransformer().transform(fromBean, ToBean.class);
Different field names copy:
From class and To class with different field names:
public class FromBean { public class ToBean {
private final String name; private final String differentName;
private final int id; private final int id;
private final List<FromSubBean> subBeanList; private final List<ToSubBean> subBeanList;
private final List<String> list; private final List<String> list;
private final FromSubBean subObject; private final ToSubBean subObject;
// getters...
public ToBean(final String differentName,
final int id,
} final List<ToSubBean> subBeanList,
final List<String> list,
final ToSubBean subObject) {
this.differentName = differentName;
this.id = id;
this.subBeanList = subBeanList;
this.list = list;
this.subObject = subObject;
}
// getters...
}
And one line code as:
beanUtils.getTransformer().withFieldMapping(new FieldMapping<>("name", "differentName")).transform(fromBean, ToBean.class);
it is also possible to map a field in the source class into multiple fields in the destination object.
Given the following source class:
public class SourceClass {
private final String name;
private final int id;
}
the following destination class:
public class DestinationClass {
private final String name;
private final int id;
private final int index;
}
and the following operations:
var sourceObj = new SourceClass("foo", 123);
var multipleFieldMapping = new FieldMapping<>("id", "index", "identifier");
var destObj = new BeanUtils().getBeanTransformer()
.withFieldMapping(multipleFieldMapping)
.transform(sourceObj, DestinationClass.class);
System.out.println("name = " + destObj.getName());
System.out.println("id = " + destObj.getId());
System.out.println("index = " + destObj.getIndex());
the output will be:
name = foo
id = 123
index = 123
Mapping destination fields with correspondent fields contained inside one of the nested objects in the source object:
Assuming that the object FromSubBean is declared as follow:
public class FromSubBean {
private String serialNumber;
private Date creationDate;
// getters and setters...
}
and our source object and destination object are described as follow:
public class FromBean { public class ToBean {
private final int id; private final int id;
private final String name; private final String name;
private final FromSubBean subObject; private final String serialNumber;
private final Date creationDate;
// all args constructor // all args constructor
// getters... // getters...
} }
the fields: serialNumber and creationDate needs to be retrieved from subObject, this can be done by defining the whole path to the end property:
FieldMapping serialNumberMapping = new FieldMapping<>("subObject.serialNumber", "serialNumber");
FieldMapping creationDateMapping = new FieldMapping<>("subObject.creationDate", "creationDate");
beanUtils.getTransformer()
.withFieldMapping(serialNumberMapping, creationDateMapping)
.transform(fromBean, ToBean.class);
Different field names defining constructor args:
public class FromBean { public class ToBean {
private final String name; private final String differentName;
private final int id; private final int id;
private final List<FromSubBean> subBeanList; private final List<ToSubBean> subBeanList;
private final List<String> list; private final List<String> list;
private final FromSubBean subObject; private final ToSubBean subObject;
// all args constructor
// getters...
public ToBean(@ConstructorArg("name") final String differentName,
@ConstructorArg("id") final int id,
} @ConstructorArg("subBeanList") final List<ToSubBean> subBeanList,
@ConstructorArg(fieldName ="list") final List<String> list,
@ConstructorArg("subObject") final ToSubBean subObject) {
this.differentName = differentName;
this.id = id;
this.subBeanList = subBeanList;
this.list = list;
this.subObject = subObject;
}
// getters...
}
And one line code as:
ToBean toBean = beanUtils.getTransformer().transform(fromBean, ToBean.class);
Different field names and types applying transformation through lambda function:
public class FromBean { public class ToBean {
private final String name; @NotNull
private final BigInteger id; public BigInteger identifier;
private final BigInteger index; public BigInteger index;
private final List<FromSubBean> subBeanList; private final String name;
private List<String> list; private final List<String> list;
private final FromSubBean subObject; private final List<ImmutableToSubFoo> nestedObjectList;
private final String locale; private final Locale locale;
private ImmutableToSubFoo nestedObject;
// constructors... // constructors...
// getters and setters... // getters and setters...
} }
FieldTransformer<BigInteger, BigInteger> fieldTransformer = new FieldTransformer<>("identifier", BigInteger::negate);
FieldTransformer<String, Locale> localeTransformer = new FieldTransformer<>("locale", Locale::forLanguageTag);
beanUtils.getTransformer()
.withFieldMapping(new FieldMapping<>("id", "identifier"))
.withFieldTransformer(fieldTransformer).transform(fromBean, ToBean.class)
.withFieldTransformer(localeTransformer);
It’s also possible to apply the same transformation function on multiple fields. Taking as an example the above bean and
assuming that we would negate both the id and the identifier, the transformer function has to be defined as follows:
FieldTransformer<BigInteger, BigInteger> fieldTransformer = new FieldTransformer<>(List.of("identifier", "index"), BigInteger::negate);
Assign a default value in case of missing field in the source object:
Assign a default value in case of a missing field in the source object:
public class FromBean { public class ToBean {
private final String name; @NotNull
private final BigInteger id; public BigInteger id;
private final String name;
private String notExistingField; // this will be null and no exceptions will be raised
// constructors... // constructors...
// getters... // getters and setters...
} }
And one line code as:
ToBean toBean = beanUtils.getTransformer()
.setDefaultValueForMissingField(true).transform(fromBean, ToBean.class);
Disable the default value set for primitive types in case they are null:
BULL by default sets the default value for all primitive types fields in case their value is in the source object.
Given the following Java Bean:
public class FromBean { public class ToBean {
private final String name; @NotNull
private final BigInteger id; public BigInteger id;
private final String name;
// constructors... // constructors...
// getters... // getters and setters...
} }
in case the field id in the FromBean object is null, the value assigned the correspondent field in the ToBean object will be 0.
To disable this you can simply do:
ToBean toBean = beanUtils.getTransformer()
.setDefaultValueForMissingPrimitiveField(false).transform(fromBean, ToBean.class);
in this case, the field id after the transformation will be null
Applying a transformation function in case of missing fields in the source object:
Assign a default value in case of a missing field in the source object:
public class FromBean { public class ToBean {
private final String name; @NotNull
private final BigInteger id; public BigInteger id;
private final String name;
private String notExistingField; // this will have value: sampleVal
// all args constructor // constructors...
// getters... // getters and setters...
} }
And one line code as:
FieldTransformer<String, String> notExistingFieldTransformer = new FieldTransformer<>("notExistingField", () -> "sampleVal");
ToBean toBean = beanUtils.getTransformer()
.withFieldTransformer(notExistingFieldTransformer)
.transform(fromBean, ToBean.class);
Apply a transformation function on a field contained in a nested object:
This example shows how a lambda transformation function can be applied to a nested object field.
Given:
public class FromBean { public class ToBean {
private final String name; private final String name;
private final FromSubBean nestedObject; private final ToSubBean nestedObject;
// all args constructor // all args constructor
// getters... // getters...
} }
and
public class ToSubBean {
private final String name;
private final long index;
}
Assuming that the lambda transformation function should be applied only to field: name contained into the ToSubBean object, the transformation function has to be defined as
follow:
FieldTransformer<String, String> nameTransformer = new FieldTransformer<>("nestedObject.name", StringUtils::capitalize);
ToBean toBean = beanUtils.getTransformer()
.withFieldTransformer(nameTransformer)
.transform(fromBean, ToBean.class);
Map a primitive type field in the source object into a nested object:
This example shows how to map a primitive field into a nested object into the destination one.
Given:
public class FromBean { public class ToBean {
private final String name; private final String name;
private final FromSubBean nestedObject; private final ToSubBean nestedObject;
private final int x;
// all args constructor // all args constructor
// getters... // getters...
} }
and
public class ToSubBean {
private final int x;
// all args constructor
} // getters...
Assuming that the value x should be mapped into the field: x contained into the ToSubBean object, the field mapping has to be defined as
follow:
ToBean toBean = beanUtils.getTransformer()
.withFieldMapping(new FieldMapping<>("x", "nestedObject.x"));
Apply a transformation function on all fields matching with the given one:
This example shows how a lambda transformation function can be applied to all fields matching with the given one independently from their position.
Given:
public class FromBean { public class ToBean {
private final String name; private final String name;
private final FromSubBean nestedObject; private final ToSubBean nestedObject;
// all args constructor // all args constructor
// getters... // getters...
} }
and
public class FromSubBean { public class ToSubBean {
private final String name; private final String name;
private final long index; private final long index;
// all args constructor // all args constructor
// getters... // getters...
} }
Assuming that the lambda transformation function should be applied only to the field: name contained in the ToSubBean object, the transformation function has to be defined
as
follow:
FieldTransformer<String, String> nameTransformer = new FieldTransformer<>("name", StringUtils::capitalize);
ToBean toBean = beanUtils.getTransformer()
.setFlatFieldNameTransformation(true)
.withFieldTransformer(nameTransformer)
.transform(fromBean, ToBean.class);
Static transformer function:
List<FromFooSimple> fromFooSimpleList = Arrays.asList(fromFooSimple, fromFooSimple);
can be transformed as follow:
Function<FromFooSimple, ImmutableToFooSimple> transformerFunction = BeanUtils.getTransformer(ImmutableToFooSimple.class);
List<ImmutableToFooSimple> actual = fromFooSimpleList.stream()
.map(transformerFunction)
.collect(Collectors.toList());
or if you have a pre-configured transformer:
Function<FromFooSimple, ImmutableToFooSimple> transformerFunction = BeanUtils.getTransformer(<yourPreconfiguredTransformer>, ImmutableToFooSimple.class);
List<ImmutableToFooSimple> actual = fromFooSimpleList.stream()
.map(transformerFunction)
.collect(Collectors.toList());
Enable Java Beans validation:
Assuming that the field: id in the fromBean instance is null.
public class FromBean { public class ToBean {
private final String name; @NotNull
private final BigInteger id; public BigInteger id;
private final String name;
// all args constructor // all args constructor
// getters... // getters and setters...
} }
adding the following configuration an exception will be thrown:
ToBean toBean = beanUtils.getTransformer()
.setValidationEnabled(true)
.transform(fromBean, ToBean.class);
Copy on an existing instance:
Given:
public class FromBean { public class ToBean {
private final String name; private String name;
private final FromSubBean nestedObject; private ToSubBean nestedObject;
// all args constructor // constructor
// getters... // getters and setters...
} }
if you need to perform the copy on an already existing object, just do:
ToBean toBean = new ToBean();
beanUtils.getTransformer().transform(fromBean, toBean);
Skip transformation on a given set of fields:
Given:
public class FromBean { public class ToBean {
private final String name; private String name;
private final FromSubBean nestedObject; private ToSubBean nestedObject;
// all args constructor // constructor
// getters... // getters and setters...
} }
public class FromBean2 {
private final int index;
private final FromSubBean nestedObject;
// all args constructor
// getters...
}
if you need to skip the transformation for a given field, just do:
ToBean toBean = new ToBean();
beanUtils.getTransformer()
.skipTransformationForField("nestedObject")
.transform(fromBean, toBean);
where nestedObject is the name of the field in the destination object.
This feature allows us to transform an object keeping the data from different sources.
To better explain this function let’s assume that the ToBean (defined above) should be transformed as follow:
namefield value has been taken from theFromBeanobjectnestedObjectfield value has been taken from theFromBean2object
the objective can be reached by doing:
// create the destination object
ToBean toBean = new ToBean();
// execute the first transformation skipping the copy of: 'nestedObject' field that should come from the other source object
beanUtils.getTransformer()
.skipTransformationForField("nestedObject")
.transform(fromBean, toBean);
// then execute the transformation skipping the copy of: 'name' field that should come from the other source object
beanUtils.getTransformer()
.skipTransformationForField("name")
.transform(fromBean2, toBean);
Keep a field type value from the source object as is:
Given:
public class FromBean { public class ToBean {
private final String name; private String name;
private final DateTime dateTime; private final DateTime dateTime;
// all args constructor // constructor
// getters... // getters and setters...
} }
if you need to keep the value of a field type from the source object as it, you can add all the types you want to keep as they are
by doing:
ClassUtils.CUSTOM_SPECIAL_TYPES.add(DateTime.class);
ToBean toBean = new ToBean();
beanUtils.getTransformer()
.transform(fromBean, toBean);
Not existing field in the source object:
In case the destination class has a field that does not exist in the source object, but it contains a getter method returning the value, the library should gets the field value from that method.
public class FromBean { public class ToBean {
private final BigInteger id;
public BigInteger getId() {
return BigInteger.TEN; // all args constructor
} // getters...
}
}
And one line code as:
ToBean toBean = beanUtils.getTransformer().transform(fromBean, ToBean.class);
Transform primitive types automatically
Given the following Java Bean:
public class FromBean { public class ToBean {
private final String indexNumber; private final int indexNumber;
private final BigInteger id; public Long id;
// constructors... // constructors...
// getters... // getters and setters...
} }
as, by default the primitive type conversion is disabled, to get the above object converted we should have
implemented transformer functions for both field indexNumber and id, but this can be done automatically by enabling the
the functionality described above.
Transformer transformer = beanUtils.getTransformer()
.setPrimitiveTypeConversionEnabled(true);
ToBean toBean = transformer.transform(fromBean, ToBean.class);
IMPORTANT: The primitive type transformation (if enabled) is executed before any other FieldTransformer function is defined on a specific field.
This means that once the FieldTransformer function will be executed the field value has already been transformed.
Builder supported patterns
The library supports the transformation of Java Bean using the following Builder patterns:
Standard pattern:
public class ItemType {
private final Class<?> objectClass;
private final Class<?> genericClass;
ItemType(final Class<?> objectClass, final Class<?> genericClass) {
this.objectClass = objectClass;
this.genericClass = genericClass;
}
public static ItemTypeBuilder builder() {
return new ItemType.ItemTypeBuilder();
}
// getter methods
public static class ItemTypeBuilder {
private Class<?> objectClass;
private Class<?> genericClass;
ItemTypeBuilder() {
}
public ItemTypeBuilder objectClass(final Class<?> objectClass) {
this.objectClass = objectClass;
return this;
}
public ItemTypeBuilder genericClass(final Class<?> genericClass) {
this.genericClass = genericClass;
return this;
}
public ItemType build() {
return new ItemType(this.objectClass, this.genericClass);
}
}
}
Custom Builder pattern:
To enable the transformation of Java Beans using the following Builder pattern:
public class ItemType {
private final Class<?> objectClass;
private final Class<?> genericClass;
ItemType(final ItemTypeBuilder builder) {
this.objectClass = builder.objectClass;
this.genericClass = builder.genericClass;
}
public static ItemTypeBuilder builder() {
return new ItemType.ItemTypeBuilder();
}
// getter methods
public static class ItemTypeBuilder {
private Class<?> objectClass;
private Class<?> genericClass;
ItemTypeBuilder() {
}
public ItemTypeBuilder objectClass(final Class<?> objectClass) {
this.objectClass = objectClass;
return this;
}
public ItemTypeBuilder genericClass(final Class<?> genericClass) {
this.genericClass = genericClass;
return this;
}
public ItemType build() {
return new ItemType(this);
}
}
}
It’s needed to enable the custom Builder Transformation as follows:
ToBean toBean = new BeanTransformer()
.setCustomBuilderTransformationEnabled(true)
.transform(sourceObject, ToBean.class);
Transform Java Record
Simple case:
public record FromFooRecord(BigInteger id, String name) { public record RecordToFoo(BigInteger id, String name) {
} }
And one line code as:
var toBean = beanUtils.getTransformer().transform(fromBean, RecordToFoo.class);
Constraints:
- the class’s fields that have to be copied must not be static
More sample beans can be found in the test package: com.expediagroup.beans.sample
Third-party library comparison
Following a comparison between the BULL functionalities and the following Third-Party libraries:
| BULL | Apache Bean Utils | Jackson | Dozer | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mutable bean copy | X | X | X | X+ |
| Mutable bean with nested objects | X | - | X | X+ |
| Mutable bean extending classes | X | - | X | X+ |
| Immutable bean copy | X | - | - | X* |
| Mixed bean copy | X | - | - | X+ |
| Copy of beans without getter and setter methods defined | X | - | - | - |
| Mutable Bean with different field’s name | X | - | - | X+ |
| Mixed with different field’s type | X | - | - | X+ |
| Immutable with different field’s type | X | - | - | X+ |
| Mutable Bean containing collection type fields containing complex objects | X | - | X | X |
| Mixed Bean containing collection type fields containing complex objects | X | - | - | X+ |
| Immutable Bean containing collection type fields containing complex objects | X | - | - | X+ |
Mutable Bean containing containing Map type fields with nested Maps inside. e.g. Map<String, Map<String, Integer>> |
X | - | X | X |
Mixed Bean containing containing Map type fields with nested Maps inside. e.g. Map<String, Map<String, Integer>> |
X | - | - | X+ |
Immutable Bean containing containing Map type fields with nested Maps inside. e.g. Map<String, Map<String, Integer>> |
X | - | - | X+ |
| Annotation field validation | X | - | X | - |
[*] Immutable types are not supported by Dozer. When a type doesn’t have a no-arg constructor and all fields are final, Dozer can’t perform the mapping.
A workaround is introducing the Builder Pattern. An example can be found here

Performance
Let’s have a look at the performance library performance. The test has been executed on the following objects:
- Mutable objects
- Mutable objects extending another mutable object
- Immutable objects
- Immutable objects extending another immutable object
- Mixed objects
| Mutable | Immutable | Mixed | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Simple objects (without nested objects) | ~0.011ms | ~0.018ms | NA |
| Complex objects (containing several nested object and several items in Map and Array objects) | ~0.37ms | ~0.21ms | ~0.22ms |
| CPU/Heap usage | ~0.2%/35 MB | ~0.2%/30 MB | ~0.2%/25 MB |

Real case testing
The Bean Utils library has been tested on a real case scenario integrating it into a real edge service (called BPE).
The purpose was to compare the latency introduced by the library plus the memory/CPU usage.
The dashboard’s screenshot shows the latency of the invoked downstream service (called BPAS) and the one where the library has been installed (BPE).
Following the obtained results:
| Classic transformer | BeanUtils library | |
|---|---|---|
| Throughput per second | 60 | 60 |
| Average CPU usage | 0.3% | 0.3% |
| Min/Max Heap Memory Usage (MB) | 90/320 | 90/320 |
| Average Latency than the downstream service | +2ms | +2ms |

Validation samples
Validating a java bean has never been so simple. The library offers different APIs related to this, following some examples:
Validate a Java Bean:
Given the following bean:
public class SampleBean {
@NotNull
private BigInteger id;
private String name;
// constructor
// getters and setters...
}
an instance of the above object:
SampleBean sampleBean = new SampleBean();
And one line code as:
beanUtils.getValidator().validate(sampleBean);
this will throw an InvalidBeanException as the id field is null.
Retrieve the violated constraints:
Given the following bean:
public class SampleBean {
@NotNull
private BigInteger id;
private String name;
// constructor
// getters and setters...
}
an instance of the above object:
SampleBean sampleBean = new SampleBean();
And one line code as:
List<String> violatedConstraints = beanUtils.getValidator().getConstraintViolationsMessages(sampleBean);
this will return a list containing a constraint validation message for the id field as it’s null and the constraint: @NotNull is not met.
in case it’s needed to have the ConstraintViolation object:
Set<ConstraintViolation<Object>> violatedConstraints = beanUtils.getValidator().getConstraintViolations(sampleBean);
Primitive type object converter
Converts a given primitive value into the given primitive type.
The supported types, in which an object can be converted (from/to), are:
Byte,byteorbyte[]ShortorshortIntegerorintLongorlongFloatorfloatDoubleordoubleBigDecimalBigIntegerCharacterorcharBooleanorbooleanString
Convert a String into an int:
Given the following variable:
String indexNumber = "26062019";
to convert it in an int:
Converter converter = new BeanUtils().getPrimitiveTypeConverter();
int indexNumber = converter.convertValue(indexNumber, int.class);
Obtain a conversion function that converts from char to byte:
It’s possible to obtain a type conversion function, reusable several times in different places.
Assuming that the required conversion is from char to `byte
char c = '1';
the conversion function is retrieved through:
Converter converter = new BeanUtils().getPrimitiveTypeConverter();
Optional<Function<Object, Object>> conversionFunction = converter.getConversionFunction(char.class, byte.class);
byte converted = conversionFunction.map(processor -> processor.apply(c)).orElse(0);
- in case the conversion is not needed as the primitive type and the destination type are the same it will return an empty
Optional - in case the conversion function is unavailable or no not possible the method throws a:
TypeConversionException
