public class ClassType
extends Type
The ClassType class is a Type of type :class.

Usually, the instance of ClassType is generated only by ClassTypeTable. Plug-in programmers must not directly generate an instance of ClassType using new. Otherwise, dependencies between files may not be processed correctly.

ClassType holds an instance of ClassInfo. Detail information of the class is held in ClassInfo. The instance of ClassInfo is generated lazily when the classInfo method is called for the first time. Interdependence between classes can be handled due to this mechanism.

If ClassInfo is required before ClassInfo is generated completely, EppUserError will be thrown. For example, if you have a super class handle a class that specifies itself, this error will occur.
