      public interface ReadOnlyProperty<T>
      extends ObservableValue<T>

  Generic interface that defines the methods common to all readable properties independent of their type.
  Since:
    JavaFX 2.0

- - ### Method Summary

    Modifier and Type | Method | Description
    --- | --- | ---
    `Object` | `getBean()` | Returns the `Object` that contains this property.
    `String` | `getName()` | Returns the name of this property.

    - ### Methods inherited from interface javafx.beans.Observable

      `addListener, removeListener`

    - ### Methods inherited from interface javafx.beans.value.ObservableValue

      `addListener, getValue, removeListener`

- - ### Method Detail

    - #### getBean

          Object getBean()

      Returns the `Object` that contains this property. If this property is not contained in an `Object`, `null` is returned.
      Returns:
        the containing `Object` or `null`

    - #### getName

          String getName()
