Sriram Srinivasan contributed this Scala code that lets you directly access scala properties. It's a model adapter that adds a lookup for a method called "foo()" when the property name is "foo". The problem is using classes in scala with the extremely convenient case class:
case class Person(name: String, salary: Double)
This creates a class of the form
class Person { public String name(), public String name(String)}
etc.
Sriram could make scala to generate beans style accessors. For that he would have to do the much uglier:
case class Person(@BeanProperty name: String, @BeanProperty salary: Double)
Anyway, the following code shows how to create an adapter that works better with Scala.
