  - getAnnotation
```
<T extends Annotation> T getAnnotation(Class<T> annotationClass)
```
    Returns the annotation on the property's member for the annotationClass or null if none exists.
    
    Type Parameters:
    
    T - annotation type
    
    Parameters:
    
    annotationClass - to get annotation for
  - getGenericType
```
Type getGenericType()
```
    Returns the generic type represented by the property. For fields this will be the field's generic type. For accessor methods this will be the generic return type. For mutator methods this will be the single parameter's generic type.
    
    For properties of type PropertyType.FIELD this will be the field's generic type.
    For accessors of type PropertyType.METHOD this will be the method's return type.
    For mutators of type PropertyType.METHOD this will be the single parameter's generic type.
    For properties of type PropertyType.GENERIC this will be the same as getType().
  - getInitialType
```
Class<?> getInitialType()
```
    Returns the initial type in the member declaring class' type hierarchy from which this property info was initiated. This is useful in resolving generic type information for the property where the type parameter may have been declared on the initial type.
  - getMember
```
Member getMember()
```
    Returns the encapsulated member or null if none exists.
  - getName
```
String getName()
```
    Returns the property name.
  - getPropertyType
```
PropertyType getPropertyType()
```
    Returns the member type.
  - getType
```
Class<?> getType()
```
    Returns the type represented by the property. For fields this will be the field type. For accessor methods this will be the return type. For mutator methods this will be the single parameter type.
