/**
 * Maps Class objects to values. A ClassMap is different from a regular Map in
 * that get(c) does not only look to see if 'c' is a key in the Map, but also
 * walks the up superclass and interface graph of 'c' to find matches. Derived
 * matches of this sort are then "cached" in the registry so that matches are
 * faster on future gets.
 * 
 * This is a very useful class for Class based registries.
 * 
 * Example:
 * 
 * ClassMap<String> m = new ClassMap<String>(); m.put(Animal.class, "Animal");
 * m.put(Fox.class, "Fox"); m.Fox.class) --> "Fox" m.get(Dog.class) --> "Animal"
 * 
 * (assuming Dog.class &lt; Animal.class)
