/**
 * Defines property resolution behavior on instances of {@link java.util.List}.
 *
 * <p>This resolver handles base objects of type <code>java.util.List</code>.
 * It accepts any object as a property and coerces that object into an
 * integer index into the list. The resulting value is the value in the list
 * at that index.</p>
 *
 * <p>This resolver can be constructed in read-only mode, which means that
 * {@link #isReadOnly} will always return <code>true</code> and 
 * {@link #setValue} will always throw
 * <code>PropertyNotWritableException</code>.</p>
 *
 * <p><code>ELResolver</code>s are combined together using 
 * {@link CompositeELResolver}s, to define rich semantics for evaluating 
 * an expression. See the javadocs for {@link ELResolver} for details.</p>
