  /**
   * Assists in implementing {@link Object#equals(Object)} methods.
   *
   * <p> This class provides methods to build a good equals method for any
   * class. It follows rules laid out in
   * <a href="https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/effectivejava.html">Effective Java</a>
   * , by Joshua Bloch. In particular the rule for comparing {@code doubles},
   * {@code floats}, and arrays can be tricky. Also, making sure that
   * {@code equals()} and {@code hashCode()} are consistent can be
   * difficult.</p>
   *
   * <p>Two Objects that compare as equals must generate the same hash code,
   * but two Objects with the same hash code do not have to be equal.</p>
   *
   * <p>All relevant fields should be included in the calculation of equals.
   * Derived fields may be ignored. In particular, any field used in
   * generating a hash code must be used in the equals method, and vice
   * versa.</p>
   *
   * <p>Typical use for the code is as follows:</p>
   * <pre>
   * public boolean equals(Object obj) {
   *   if (obj == null) { return false; }
   *   if (obj == this) { return true; }
   *   if (obj.getClass() != getClass()) {
   *     return false;
   *   }
   *   MyClass rhs = (MyClass) obj;
   *   return new EqualsBuilder()
   *                 .appendSuper(super.equals(obj))
   *                 .append(field1, rhs.field1)
   *                 .append(field2, rhs.field2)
   *                 .append(field3, rhs.field3)
   *                 .isEquals();
   *  }
   * </pre>
   *
   * <p> Alternatively, there is a method that uses reflection to determine
   * the fields to test. Because these fields are usually private, the method,
   * {@code reflectionEquals}, uses {@code AccessibleObject.setAccessible} to
   * change the visibility of the fields. This will fail under a security
   * manager, unless the appropriate permissions are set up correctly. It is
   * also slower than testing explicitly.  Non-primitive fields are compared using
   * {@code equals()}.</p>
   *
   * <p> A typical invocation for this method would look like:</p>
   * <pre>
   * public boolean equals(Object obj) {
   *   return EqualsBuilder.reflectionEquals(this, obj);
   * }
   * </pre>
   *
   * <p>The {@link EqualsExclude} annotation can be used to exclude fields from being
   * used by the {@code reflectionEquals} methods.</p>
