Edit Question
Title
Body
Let's say I have a class like this (and also further assume that all the private variables: public class Item { private String _id = null; private String _name = null; private String _description = null; ... } Now, if I want to build a toString() representation of this class, I would do something like this inside the Item class: @Override public String toString() { return (_id + " " + _name + " " + _description); } But what if I have say 15 private variables inside the class? Do I have to write the name of each and every variable like this? Ideally, I would like to get over with the task by iterating through the list of private variables of this class and construct the string representation: @Override public String toString() { ArrayList<String> members = getClass().getMembers(); //Some method like this String string = ""; for(...) string += members[i] + " "; } Or perhaps a toJSON method, I would still need access to the names of these variables. Any suggestions?
