<H2><A NAME="concept:LvaluePropertyMap"></A>
LvaluePropertyMap
</H2>

The LvaluePropertyMap provides <code>operator[]</code> and function <code>get()</code> for accessing a
reference to a value object. The return type  refines that of function <code>get()</code>in <a
href="./ReadablePropertyMap.html">ReadablePropertyMap</a>; it can only be a reference (for a <I>mutable</I> LvaluePropertyMap) or a const reference (for a <I>non-mutable</I> LvaluePropertyMap).

<H3>Refinement of</H3>

<a href="./ReadablePropertyMap.html">ReadablePropertyMap</a>
for non-mutable or <a href="./ReadWritePropertyMap.html">ReadWritePropertyMap</a> for mutable property map.
