public class NestedPropertyTag

extends javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.BodyTagSupport

implements NestedNameSupport

NestedPropertyTag. The one of only two additions in this nested suite of tags. This is so that you can specify extra levels of nesting in one elegant tag rather than having to propagate and manage an extra dot notated property in nested child tags. It's simply recognised by the helper class and it's property is added to the nesting list.
