Re: Reflection Usage

[James Perkins <jrperkinsjr@xxxxxxxxx>]

That might work. I will need to think it through.

Right now I'm using some annotations to map the values needed for Lucene and
the database field name. The values for Lucene are an enum, so maybe I can
just add the DB field name to the enum use a Map with the enum as the key.

In fact, that might even be a little better and less confusing. I will test
it, thanks!
