public class ClassUtils
extends Object

Various class utilities that are used when the user doesn't specify parameters in the API. These methods do not usually perform very well due to the need to obtain stack traces, so it is almost always preferred for the user to specify these parameters in the MonDemand API instead of trying to determine them using this class at runtime.
