I understand the question more like : Is there already a lib which help to get rid of writing hardcoded and hard to maintain lines like :
MyClass data; String[] myFields = {"name", "label", ...} List<Column> columns; for (String field : myFields) { if (field == "name") { columns.add(new Column(field, data.getName())) } else if (field == "label") { columns.add(new Column(field, data.getLabel())) } else ... } (same for loading (instanciating) automagically the object).
