019/**
020 * Simple implementation of the {@link TypeConverter} interface that does not operate on
021 * a specific target object. This is an alternative to using a full-blown BeanWrapperImpl
022 * instance for arbitrary type conversion needs, while using the very same conversion
023 * algorithm (including delegation to {@link java.beans.PropertyEditor} and
024 * {@link org.springframework.core.convert.ConversionService}) underneath.
025 *
026 * <p><b>Note:</b> Due to its reliance on {@link java.beans.PropertyEditor PropertyEditors},
027 * SimpleTypeConverter is <em>not</em> thread-safe. Use a separate instance for each thread.
