Behaim uses Java reflection to explore an domain model up to a configurable recursion depth. The resulting meta data

can then be used by pluggable visitors. 

As a proof of concept, Behaim currently comes with a builder visitor that allows for the creation of randomly populated 

object graphs which may be useful for performance tests.

# Features

- Multi-threaded graph exploration

- Re-use of meta data about an already explored object graph

- Extensible with custom visitors. Already comes with a visitor to create a randomly populated object graph.

# Builder Usage

Default configuration

```

Foo foo = Builder.make(Foo.class);

Collection foos = Builder.make(Foo.class, 100);

```

Custom configuration

```

Config config = new Config(...);

Foo foo = Builder.make(Foo.class, config);

Collection foos = Builder.make(Foo.class, config, 100);

```

Repeated builds

When you need to repeatedly create objects with the same configuration, use the instance make method.

```

Builder builder = new Builder(Foo.class);

Collection foos1 = builder.make(100);

Collection foos2 = builder.make(50);

```

# FAQ

What does Behaim mean?

Martin Behaim (1459 – 1507) was a German cosmographer, astronomer, geographer and explorer. His [Erdapfel](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erdapfel) 

from 1492 is considered to be the oldest surviving terrestrial globe.
