Description

When you do something like:

TestBean anonymous = new TestBean() {
public String getStringProperty()

{ return "foo"; }

};
PropertyUtils.getProperty(anonymous, "stringProperty");

PropertyUtils fails as:

java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: Property 'stringProperty' has no getter method in class 'class org.apache.commons.beanutils.PropertyUtilsTestCase$1'
