BeanBuilder (Apache DeltaSpike Sources 1.4.1 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.apache.deltaspike.core.util.bean.BeanBuilder<T>

Direct Known Subclasses:

WrappingBeanBuilder
```
public class BeanBuilder<T>
extends Object
```
A builder class for creating immutable beans. The builder can create PassivationCapable beans.

The builder can read from an AnnotatedType and have any attribute modified. This class is not thread-safe, but the bean created by calling create() is.

It is advised that a new bean builder is instantiated for each bean created.
