Hi All: I have a use case where I need to use reflection to set a public static final Object.
This does not work with our FieldUtils class because the "forceAccess" argument is only used to deal with field visibility by calling Field#setAccessible(boolean) Q1: Should "forceAccess" be expanded to remove the final modifier? Or: Q2: Should we add another boolean parameter "forceWrite" to remove the FINAL modifier? I like Q1. Q3: The Accessible flag is NOT reset if changed after a write! I think it should be. Thoughts?
