title: Apache Bean Utils - Copy Properties to Class With no Setters
body: <p>To reduce the amount of code written I am trying to use Apache's bean utils to copy properties from one bean to another of a different type with the same fields. However, the destination bean does not have any setters. Ex</p>
  
  <pre><code>BeanUtils.copyProperties(dest, sourceItem);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Since the destination item does not have any setters, it appears that that it's fields are not being set. </p>
  
  <p>Is there another library that can achieve what I'm trying to do?</p>
  
  <p>Note, I am aware that by definition, a class without mutators is not a bean, but I would still like to copy these properties.</p>
