Mike,
Not sure howm much your solution is a solution. If you have an object with
upwards of 3000 nodes and, moreover, the need is to do
getObjectUsefullName().getPropertyOtherUsefullName() in different
combinations.
While OGNL fascilitated this, because usefull names are not lost and also
those paths can ne encoded in Hivemind rules to e.g. inject values into the
object being called, a difficulty I encountered was whether the call should
be
getParentOfObjectUsefullName().getObjectUsefullName().getPropertyOtherUsefullName()
or getObjectUsefullName().getPropertyOtherUsefullName() as only one would
ensure the parent was instantiated correctly and non null for the property
call. With a large object graph this, of course, bearing in mind differences
between testing and production, was a puzzle.
