PojoPathException	This is the abstract base class for exceptions thrown by the PojoPathNavigator.
PojoPathFunctionUndefinedException	An PojoPathFunctionUndefinedException is thrown by the PojoPathNavigator if the segment of a PojoPath points to a PojoPathFunction that is NOT registered.
PojoPathFunctionUnsupportedOperationException	A PojoPathFunctionUnsupportedOperationException is thrown if a PojoPathFunction does NOT support a specific operation that was invoked.
