<div class="block">Returns an Iterable over the path components with elements represented as
<a href="../../../../org/apache/cayenne/map/PathComponent.html" title="interface in org.apache.cayenne.map"><code>PathComponent</code></a> instances, encapsulating a relationship, an attribute or a
subpath alias. An optional "aliasMap" parameter is used to resolve subpaths from
aliases.
<p>
This method is lazy: if path is invalid and can not be resolved from this entity,
this method will still return an Iterator, but an attempt to read the first invalid
path component will result in ExpressionException.
