+
+ With this sample, two custom PropertyAccessors will be injected to the
+ EvaluationContext in the order that they are declared.
+

- At this time, PropertyAccessors are not inherited and must be
- declared as described above in each context.
+ Custom PropertyAccessors declared in a parent context are also made available
+ in any child context(s). They are placed at the end of result list (but before the default
+ org.springframework.context.expression.MapAccessor and
+ org.springframework.expression.spel.support.ReflectivePropertyAccessor).
+ If a PropertyAccessor with the same bean id is declared in a child context(s),
+ it will override the parent accessor. Beans declared within a <spel-property-accessors/>
+ must have an 'id' attribute.
+ The final order of usage is: the accessors in the current context,
+ in the order in which they are declared, followed by any from parent contexts, in order, followed
+ by the MapAccessor and finally the ReflectivePropertyAccessor.
