Get the result of a Object path expression as a java Object with generic type.
E.g. given the following Object document:
<pre>
{ "store": {
"book": [
{ "category": "reference",
"author": "Nigel Rees",
"title": "Sayings of the Century",
"price": 8.95
},
{ "category": "fiction",
"author": "Evelyn Waugh",
"title": "Sword of Honour",
"price": 12.99
},
{ "category": "fiction",
"author": "Herman Melville",
"title": "Moby Dick",
"isbn": "0-553-21311-3",
"price": 8.99
},
{ "category": "fiction",
"author": "J. R. R. Tolkien",
"title": "The Lord of the Rings",
"isbn": "0-395-19395-8",
"price": 22.99
}
],
"bicycle": {
"color": "red",
"price": 19.95
}
}
}
</pre>
And you want to get a book as a <code>Map&lt;String, Object&gt;</code>:
<p/>
Then
<pre>
Map&lt;String, Object&gt; book = from(Object).getObject("store.book[2]", new TypeRef&lt;Map&lt;String, Object&gt;&gt;() {});
</pre>
<p/>
maps the second book to a Book instance.

@param path       The path to the object to map
@param typeRef    The class type of the expected object
@param <T>        The type of the expected object
@return The object
