/**
 * <p>
 * Assists in implementing {@link Object#toString()} methods using reflection.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * This class uses reflection to determine the fields to append. Because these fields are usually private, the class
 * uses {@link java.lang.reflect.AccessibleObject#setAccessible(java.lang.reflect.AccessibleObject[], boolean)} to
 * change the visibility of the fields. This will fail under a security manager, unless the appropriate permissions are
 * set up correctly.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Using reflection to access (private) fields circumvents any synchronization protection guarding access to these
 * fields. If a toString method cannot safely read a field, you should exclude it from the toString method, or use
 * synchronization consistent with the class' lock management around the invocation of the method. Take special care to
 * exclude non-thread-safe collection classes, because these classes may throw ConcurrentModificationException if
 * modified while the toString method is executing.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * A typical invocation for this method would look like:
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * public String toString() {
 *     return ReflectionToStringBuilder.toString(this);
 * }
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * You can also use the builder to debug 3rd party objects:
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * System.out.println(&quot;An object: &quot; + ReflectionToStringBuilder.toString(anObject));
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * A subclass can control field output by overriding the methods:
 * </p>
 * <ul>
 * <li>{@link #accept(java.lang.reflect.Field)}</li>
 * <li>{@link #getValue(java.lang.reflect.Field)}</li>
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * For example, this method does <i>not</i> include the <code>password</code> field in the returned <code>String</code>:
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * public String toString() {
 *     return (new ReflectionToStringBuilder(this) {
 *         protected boolean accept(Field f) {
 *             return super.accept(f) &amp;&amp; !f.getName().equals(&quot;password&quot;);
 *         }
 *     }).toString();
 * }
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * Alternatively the {@link ToStringExclude} annotation can be used to exclude fields from being incorporated in the
 * result.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * The exact format of the <code>toString</code> is determined by the {@link ToStringStyle} passed into the constructor.
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>
 * <b>Note:</b> the default {@link ToStringStyle} will only do a "shallow" formatting, i.e. composed objects are not
 * further traversed. To get "deep" formatting, use an instance of {@link RecursiveToStringStyle}.
 * </p>
 *
