Oleksandr Alesinskyy opened SPR-5650 and commented

/**
 * Obtain the property descriptor for a specific property
 * of the wrapped object.
 * @param propertyName the property to obtain the descriptor for
 * (may be a nested path, but no indexed/mapped property)
 * @return the property descriptor for the specified property
 * @throws  InvalidPropertyException if there is no such property 
 */
PropertyDescriptor getPropertyDescriptor(String propertyName) throws  BeansException ;

Since InvalidPropertyException is a subclass of BeansException, this wasn't really wrong... but admittedly confusing. I've fixed this for Spring 3.0.
