I found a useful method here
but it fails to work with classes with array members e.g.
public class Test {
int [] arr = new int[2];
}
Full code from the answer mentioned above
with my failing attempts to instantiate new array:
public static Object cloneObject(Object _obj) {
try {
// begin my changes
Object copy = null;
if (!_obj.getClass().isArray())
copy = _obj.getClass().newInstance();
else {
int len = Array.getLength(_obj);
Class type = _obj.getClass().getComponentType();
// Next line fails with: Compiler(syntax) error
// copy = (type.getClass()[])Array.newInstance(_obj.getClass(), len);
// Next line fails with: "InstantiationException: int cannot be instantiated"
// copy = _obj.getClass().getComponentType().newInstance();
// how then?
}
// end my changes
for (Field field : _obj.getClass().getDeclaredFields()) {
field.setAccessible(true);
if (field.get(_obj) == null || Modifier.isFinal(field.getModifiers()))
continue;
if (field.getType().isPrimitive() ||
field.getType().equals(String.class) ||
field.getType().getSuperclass().equals(Number.class) ||
field.getType().equals(Boolean.class)
)
field.set(copy, field.get(_obj));
else {
Object child = field.get(_obj);
if (child == _obj)
field.set(copy, copy);
else
field.set(copy, cloneObject(field.get(_obj)));
}
}
return copy;
} catch (Exception _e){
return null;
}
}
Is it even possible to achieve?
