/**
 * Defines property resolution behavior on objects using the JavaBeans
 * component architecture.
 *
 * <p>This resolver handles base objects of any type, as long as the
 * base is not <code>null</code>. It accepts any object as a property, and
 * coerces it to a string. That string is then used to find a JavaBeans
 * compliant property on the base object. The value is accessed using
 * JavaBeans getters and setters.</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>
 *
 * <p>Because this resolver handles base objects of any type, it should
 * be placed near the end of a composite resolver. Otherwise, it will
 * claim to have resolved a property before any resolvers that come after
 * it get a chance to test if they can do so as well.</p>
