Inheritence support in getPojoFields or another method

[drdamour]

I was surprised getPojoFields didn't return inherited fields. I've been using this helper method to get all fields, even those inherited.

public static Map<PojoField, PojoClass> getAllFieldsIncludingInherited(PojoClass pojoClass){
        Map<PojoField, PojoClass> fields = new HashMap<PojoField, PojoClass>();

        PojoClass c = pojoClass;

        while(c != null){
            for(PojoField field : c.getPojoFields()){
                fields.put(field, c);
            }

            c = c.getSuperClass();
        }

        return fields;
    }

The map is because i need the PojoClass to getClazz().getDeclaredField(PojoField.getName()) in order to get a handle to the getters and setters method (using method factory). This wouldn't be necessary if #79 was implemented.

Closing issue as issue #79 has already been implemented.
Please feel free to update if further assistance on this is required.

all that 79 does is make the map not necessary as the return type (can now just return the methods)...there still needs to be a way to get all inherited fields with getPojoFields in my opinion...can you please reopen?

[oshoukry]

Thank you for your timely response, I'll open an issue specifically to get all inherited fields as a separate enhancement as this issue mentions that #79 makes it not necessary.

[drdamour]

it makes returning a map not necessary..the issue is still the issue

See issue #101 please feel free to comment on that regarding enhancing the PojoClass to get all fields.
