<P>
Provides deep <b>Bean</b> equals() and hashCode() functionality for Java Beans.
<p>
It works on all read/write properties, recursively. It support all primitive types, Strings, Collections,
bean-like objects and multi-dimensional arrays of any of them.
<p>
The hashcode is calculated by getting the hashcode of the Bean String representation.
