    - #### canRead

          public boolean canRead(EvaluationContext context,
                        Object target,
                        String name)
                          throws AccessException

      Description copied from interface: `PropertyAccessor`
      Called to determine if a resolver instance is able to access a specified property on a specified target object.
      Specified by:
        `canRead` in interface `PropertyAccessor`
      Parameters:
        `context` - the evaluation context in which the access is being attempted
        `target` - the target object upon which the property is being accessed
        `name` - the name of the property being accessed
      Returns:
        true if this resolver is able to read the property
      Throws:
        `AccessException` - if there is any problem determining whether the property can be read

    - #### read

          public TypedValue read(EvaluationContext context,
                        Object target,
                        String name)
                          throws AccessException

      Description copied from interface: `PropertyAccessor`
      Called to read a property from a specified target object
      Specified by:
        `read` in interface `PropertyAccessor`
      Parameters:
        `context` - the evaluation context in which the access is being attempted
        `target` - the target object upon which the property is being accessed
        `name` - the name of the property being accessed
      Returns:
        a TypedValue object wrapping the property value read and a type descriptor for it
      Throws:
        `AccessException` - if there is any problem accessing the property value

    - #### canWrite

          public boolean canWrite(EvaluationContext context,
                         Object target,
                         String name)
                           throws AccessException

      Description copied from interface: `PropertyAccessor`
      Called to determine if a resolver instance is able to write to a specified property on a specified target object.
      Specified by:
        `canWrite` in interface `PropertyAccessor`
      Parameters:
        `context` - the evaluation context in which the access is being attempted
        `target` - the target object upon which the property is being accessed
        `name` - the name of the property being accessed
      Returns:
        true if this resolver is able to write to the property
      Throws:
        `AccessException` - if there is any problem determining whether the property can be written to

    - #### write

          public void write(EvaluationContext context,
                   Object target,
                   String name,

                     throws AccessException

      Description copied from interface: `PropertyAccessor`
      Called to write to a property on a specified target object. Should only succeed if canWrite() also returns true.
      Specified by:

      Parameters:
        `context` - the evaluation context in which the access is being attempted
