/**
 * Describes the VM's view of a java class.  Contains descriptions of the
 * static and dynamic fields, declaredMethods, and information relevant to the
 * class.
 * 
 * Note that ClassInfos / classes have three different construction/initialization steps:
 * (1) construction : recursively via ClassLoaderInfo.getResolvedClassInfo -> ClassFileContainer.createClassInfo
 *     -> ClassInfo ctor -> resolveClass
 *     this only creates the ClassInfo object, but it is not visible/usable from SUT code yet and hence not
 *     observable from classLoaded() listeners
 * (2) registration : create StaticElementInfo and add it to the respective ClassLoaderInfo statics, then create
 *     the java.lang.Class companion object in the SUT
 *     this makes the ClassInfo usable from SUT code
 * (3) initialization : execute clinit (if the class has one)
 * 
 * Note that id/uniqueId are NOT set before registration takes place, and registration is not automatically performed since
 * listeners/peers might create ClassInfos internally (e.g. for inspection), which should not be visible from the SUT or observable
 * by other listeners.
 * 
 * Automatic registration from the ClassInfo ctors would require to pass a ThreadInfo context throughout the whole ClassLoaderInfo/
 * ClassFileContainer/ClassInfo chain and could lead to false positives for sharedness based POR, which would record this
 * thread as referencing even if this is a listener/peer internal request
