/**
 * <p>Implementation of <code>DynaBean</code> that wraps a standard JavaBean
 * instance, so that DynaBean APIs can be used to access its properties.</p>
 *
 * <p>
 * The most common use cases for this class involve wrapping an existing java bean.
 * (This makes it different from the typical use cases for other <code>DynaBean</code>'s.) 
 * For example:
 * </p>
 * <code><pre>
 *  Object aJavaBean = ...;
 *  ...
 *  DynaBean db = new WrapDynaBean(aJavaBean);
 *  ...
 * </pre></code>
 *
 * <p><strong>IMPLEMENTATION NOTE</strong> - This implementation does not
 * support the <code>contains()</code> and <code>remove()</code> methods.</p>
