public abstract class ToStringStyle extends Object implements Serializable
Controls String formatting for ToStringBuilder.
 The main public interface is always via ToStringBuilder.
These classes are intended to be used as Singletons.
 There is no need to instantiate a new style each time. A program
 will generally use one of the predefined constants on this class.
 Alternatively, the StandardToStringStyle class can be used
 to set the individual settings. Thus most styles can be achieved
 without subclassing.
If required, a subclass can override as many or as few of the
 methods as it requires. Each object type (from boolean
 to long to Object to int[]) has
 its own methods to output it. Most have two versions, detail and summary.
 
For example, the detail version of the array based methods will output the whole array, whereas the summary method will just output the array length.
If you want to format the output of certain objects, such as dates, you must create a subclass and override a method.
 public class MyStyle extends ToStringStyle {
   protected void appendDetail(StringBuffer buffer, String fieldName, Object value) {
     if (value instanceof Date) {
       value = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd").format(value);
     }
     buffer.append(value);
   }
 }

 Note: Since field names are mandatory in JSON, this
 ToStringStyle will throw an UnsupportedOperationException if no
 field name is passed in while appending. Furthermore This ToStringStyle
 will only generate valid JSON if referenced objects also produce JSON
 when calling toString() on them.public void appendSuper(StringBuffer buffer, String superToString)
