/**
* JXPathModule allows to access properties of any object in generic
* way. JXPath provides APIs for the traversal of graphs of
* JavaBeans, DOM and other types of objects using the XPath
* syntax. This is based on the AbstractJXPathModule and duplicates
* the code since multiple inheritance is not possible. Please keep both
* classes in sync.
*
* <p>Configuration example:</p>
* <table>
* <tr><td><code>&lt;lenient&gt;false&lt;/lenient&gt;</td>
* <td>When set to true, non-existing attributes return null, when set to false,
* an exception is thrown. Default is true.</td>
*</tr>
* <tr><td><code>&lt;parameter&gt;false&lt;/parameter&gt;</td>
* <td>Attribute name to be used instead of passed attribute name.</td>
*</tr>
* <tr><td><code>&lt;from-parameter&gt;false&lt;/from-parameter&gt;</td>
* <td>Attribute name to pass to configured input module</td>
*</tr>
* <tr><td><code>&lt;input-module name="request-attr"/&gt;</td>
* <td>Uses the "request-attr" input module to obtain a value and
* applies the given JXPath expression to it.</td>
*</tr>
* <tr><td><code>&lt;function name="java.lang.String" prefix="str"/&gt;</td>
* <td>Imports the class "String" as extension class to the JXPathContext using
* the prefix "str". Thus "str:length(xpath)" would apply the method "length" to
* the string object obtained from the xpath expression. Please note that the class
* needs to be fully qualified.</td>
*</tr>
* <tr><td><code>&lt;package name="java.util" prefix="util"/&gt;</td>
* <td>Imports all classes in the package "java.util" as extension classes to the
* JXPathContext using the prefix "util". Thus "util:Date.new()" would create a
* new java.util.Date object.</td>
* </tr></table>
*
* <p>In addition, it accepts the attributes "parameter" to override
* the attribute name and "from-parameter" to pass as attribute name
* to the configured input module.</p>
