- Method Detail
  - getValueClass
```
default Class<List<E>> getValueClass()
```
    Specified by:
    
    getValueClass in interface ReadableTypedValue<E>
    
    Returns:
    
    the Class reflecting the type of values that can be stored by this property. Even if the value is null the property must support returning the property class.
  - getSafe
```
default List<E> getSafe()
```
    Specified by:
    
    getSafe in interface ReadableObjectValue<E>
    
    Specified by:
    
    getSafe in interface ReadableValue<E>
    
    Returns:
    
    the same as ReadableValue.get() but trying to avoid returning null where possible. So a neutral element is returned instead of null for each type supporting this (e.g. "" for String, 0 for any kind of Number, Boolean.FALSE, empty collection, etc.).
