Using simple dotted expressions to extract the values from an Object instance, For example we might want to extract a
value like: project.build.sourceDirectory
The implementation supports indexed, nested and mapped properties similar to the JSP way.

The implementation supports indexed, nested and mapped properties.
- nested properties should be defined by a dot, i.e. "user.address.street"
- indexed properties (java.util.List or array instance) should be contains
(\\w+)\\[(\\d+)\\]
pattern, i.e. "user.addresses[1].street"
- mapped properties should be contains
(\\w+)\\((.+)\\)
pattern, i.e.
"user.addresses(myAddress).street"
Params: - expression – not null expression
- root – not null object
Throws: - Exception – if any
Returns: the object defined by the expression
