 // Observes the string-typed "name" property of a Node object
 IBeanValueProperty name = BeanProperties.value(Node.class, "name");
 // Observes the name of the parent of a Node object.
 IBeanValueProperty parentName = parent.value(name);
 

Parameters:
property - the detail property to observe
Returns:
a master-detail combination of this property and the specified value property.

list
