Here is the code,

public static Map<String, Object> toMap (Object object) {
HashMap<String, Object> result = new HashMap<String, Object>();
try {
Class<?> clazz = object.getClass();
while(clazz != null) { // Dont want to proces Object.class
for (Field field : clazz.getDeclaredFields()) {
int modifiers = field.getModifiers();
if (isFinal(modifiers) || isStatic(modifiers)) {
continue;
}
setFeieldAccessible(field);

                Object fieldValue = field.get(object);
                if (fieldValue == null) {
                    continue;
                }

                String propertyKey = field.isAnnotationPresent(FormProperty.class)
                        ? field.getAnnotation(FormProperty.class).value()
                        : field.getName();

                result.put(propertyKey, fieldValue);
            }
            clazz = clazz.getSuperclass();
        }

    } catch (Exception e) {

    }

    return result;
}

For the time being i have extended the formencoder and did the modifications.

Hi,
Is it possible to use a class method that call "toMap()" instead of a static method ("toMap()")?
This will at least allow user to override it.
