I'm not sure what you're asking, exactly. ${Integer.class} is a perfectly
valid expression, but it means "the 'class' property of the scoped
variable named 'Integer'". It doesn't mean "the result of the getClass()
method for the class Integer", if that's what you're asking.
If you had an individual Integer I, then ${I.class} would correspond to
the Class object for Integer.
