How to find out all possible settable properties for a bean?

[pstein]

Assume I got a bean in a *.jar but no documentation.

Is there a way to find out which properties can be set in SpringXML at all?

In other words: Is there something like a Spring disassembler which lists all possible settable bean variables (including their data type) ?

If you develop using Eclipse + Spring IDE or STS, you can use content assist (ctrl + space) inside Spring xml to obtain all settable properties. Just write <property name= inside the bean and hit ctrl+space and you get the list.
Otherwise, you must recur to documentation (either attach javadoc, open the class and navigate it, or refer to online documentation).

IntelliJ Idea (not free as Eclipse + STS) also has that feature.
