Class BeanUtilsParser

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.shapelogic.util.BeanUtilsParser
All Implemented Interfaces:
KeyValueParser

public class BeanUtilsParser
extends java.lang.Object
implements KeyValueParser

IPaser that is using the BeanUtils for setting JavaBeans.
The current solution is not elegant. I would have thougth that there should be a simpler way to parse a property file style string and set it in a JavaBean.
The reason that I am not using Antlr is that I do not what to create dependency on it, since it is using so many other libraries. Not sure if this should be in util package when it it using Commons BeanUtils.
Maybe if the jar file is missing it will just fail.
Otherwise there would need to be special packages for dependencies of other libraries.
XXX: This will not work with the format of the arg from ImageJ.
Current implementation assumes this format of arg: key1=value1 key2=value2
