/**
 * A Class represents a Java type.  There will never be multiple Class
 * objects with identical names and ClassLoaders. Primitive types, array
 * types, and void also have a Class object.
 *
 * <p>Arrays with identical type and number of dimensions share the same class.
 * The array class ClassLoader is the same as the ClassLoader of the element
 * type of the array (which can be null to indicate the bootstrap classloader).
 * The name of an array class is <code>[&lt;signature format&gt;;</code>.
 * <p> For example,
 * String[]'s class is <code>[Ljava.lang.String;</code>. boolean, byte,
 * short, char, int, long, float and double have the "type name" of
 * Z,B,S,C,I,J,F,D for the purposes of array classes.  If it's a
 * multidimensioned array, the same principle applies:
 * <code>int[][][]</code> == <code>[[[I</code>.
 *
 * <p>There is no public constructor - Class objects are obtained only through
 * the virtual machine, as defined in ClassLoaders.
 *
 * @serialData Class objects serialize specially:
 * <code>TC_CLASS ClassDescriptor</code>. For more serialization information,
 * see {@link ObjectStreamClass}.
