      Return the property on the current FlowObject. Depending on the passed flags, this will try to compute it based on other properties, or if it is inheritable, to return the inherited value. If all else fails, it returns the default value.

        `get` in class `PropertyMaker`
      Parameters:

        the property
      Throws:
        `PropertyException` - if a property exception occurs

    - #### convertProperty
