Question

I have a class named as order in package com.abc
I have another class named as order in different package in different project named as com.bcd

Both order classes have same code get, set functions and variables with no changes.

Then I have objects

com.abc.order obj1 = new com.abc.order();
com.bcd.order obj2 = new com.bdc.order();

Now I have to pass arguments to a function and it takes only obj2 as parameters
How can I convert type of obj1 into type of obj2

I cannot change parameters for the function.

Looking forward to your reply.
thanks.

Have a look at Apache Commons BeanUtils to copy properties from one object to another.

http://commons.apache.org/beanutils/v1.8.3/apidocs/index.html

Something like

BeanUtils.copyProperties(obj2, obj1)

should do the trick.
