Hello,

I would love to work on this issue although this is my first time contributing to open source, I would like to know the next steps I can take.

>                 Key: BEANUTILS-533
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEANUTILS-533
>             Project: Commons BeanUtils
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Bean / Property Utils
>    Affects Versions: 1.7.0, 1.8.0, 1.9.0, 1.9.3
>            Reporter: Maxime Garenne
>            Priority: Blocker

> h2. Context
> I use BeanUtils to return a map that contain properties.
> I had a failure in my code because this property causes a fail in the BeanUtils "getMappedProperty" method :
> test(myvalue(ineedthisparenthis))
> h2. Explanation
> In DefaultResolver #getKey(String expression), if the expression contains a ")", the returned value is incorrect because the algorithm stops at the first ")" character (#indefOf is used).
> In my example, the method now returns : "myvalue(ineedthisparenthis". It should be "myvalue(ineedthisparenthis) with proprerty name = "test".
> Instead of using :
> {code:java}
> final int end = expression.indexOf(MAPPED_END, i);{code}
> It would be better to just check if the last character of "expression" is a ")" and then substring between "i+1" and last character index.
> Then my example would not fail. 
>  
> This occurs in version 1.7.
> I checked in upper versions, the method is different but still wrong because the method indexOf is still used (taking again the first ")" found). 
>  # escape # parenthesis # bracket # DefaultResolver # getKey # expression
