> It could sometimes be very useful to create DynaClass definitions not only programmatically (as is possible today), but to define data structures in some textual format (a "DSL"), and load that into DynaClass/DynaProperty and create DynaBeans from that.
> This isn't very hard to add to BeanUtils (I've done it and will attach a patch) and would allow the following usage, given:
> {noformat}Address  { 
> 	zip:  java.lang.Long 
> }
> Employee {
>         firstName : java.lang.String
> 	lastName :java.lang.String   
> 	
> 	mainAddress  : Address
> 	boss         : Employee
> 	subordinates : Employee *
> 	address      : Address <>
> }{noformat}
> one could then use the new proposed DynaClassReader like so:
> {noformat}DynaClassReader r = new DynaClassReader();
> r.readClasspathResource("/DynaClassReaderTest.domain.txt");
> DynaClass klass = r.getDynaClass("Employee");
> {noformat}
> This requires BEANUTILS-405.
