Feel free to take a look at Gestalt for use in your library, i welcome any feedback and try and keep it up to date as possible. I have used it in a few projects at work (in production), but we have mostly moved over to Spring, so haven't been using it as much. Although i still enjoy working on it and adding new and interesting features.

I have a library Gestalt that de-serializes configuration properties into objects. It checks for a setter and uses that first, but if not found it leverages setAccessable on the field to set the value from the configuration.
