what do I need to do to use BeanUtils.copyProperties?

I am facing some problems while making a value Object.
I am trying to use BeanUtils.copyProperties method and copy all properties form the formBean to the ValueObject.

From the tutorials that I have been thru I have seen that a value object overrides the toString method and returns

 
return ReflectionToStringBuilder.toString(this);
   

The problem is that I cannot seem to find a lang package inside the org.apache.commons. package (so that I can use the ReflectionToStringBuilder API)


The question is.. do I really need to do all this i.e.(use the ReflectionToStringBuilder) without it can I not use the BeanUtils.copyPorperties? Because without this the properties dont seem to get copied..
