    `static BigDecimal` | `bigDecValue(Object value)` Evaluates the given object as a BigDecimal.
    `static BigInteger` | `bigIntValue(Object value)` Evaluates the given object as a BigInteger.
    `static boolean` | `booleanValue(Object value)` Evaluates the given object as a boolean: if it is a Boolean object, it's easy; if it's a Number or a Character, returns true for non-zero objects; and otherwise returns true for non-null objects.
    `Object` | `convertValue(Map<String,Object> context, Object value, Class toType)`
    `Object` | `convertValue(Map<String,Object> context, Object target, Member member, String propertyName, Object value, Class toType)` Converts the given value to a given type.
    `Object` | `convertValue(Object value, Class toType)` Returns the value converted numerically to the given class type This method also detects when arrays are being converted and converts the components of one array to the type of the other.

      Description copied from interface: `TypeConverter`
      Converts the given value to a given type. The OGNL context, target, member and name of property being set are given. This method should be able to handle conversion in general without any context, target, member or property name specified.
      Specified by:
        `convertValue` in interface `TypeConverter`
      Parameters:
        `context` - context under which the conversion is being done
        `target` - target object in which the property is being set
        `member` - member (Constructor, Method or Field) being set
        `propertyName` - property name being set
        `value` - value to be converted
        `toType` - type to which value is converted
      Returns:
        Converted value of type toType or TypeConverter.NoConversionPossible to indicate that the conversion was not possible.

    - #### getTypeConverter

          public TypeConverter getTypeConverter(Map<String,Object> context)

    - #### convertValue

          public Object convertValue(Object value,
                                     Class toType)

      Returns the value converted numerically to the given class type This method also detects when arrays are being converted and converts the components of one array to the type of the other.
      Parameters:
        `value` - an object to be converted to the given type
        `toType` - class type to be converted to
      Returns:
