/**
 * Represents the UNO built-in type <code>TYPE</code>.
 *
 * <p>The UNO type is not directly mapped to <code>java.lang.Class</code> for at
 * least two reasons.  For one, some UNO types (like <code>UNSIGNED
 * SHORT</code>) do not have a matching Java class.  For another, it can be
 * necessary to describe a type which is unknown to the Java runtime system
 * (for example, for delaying the need of a class, so that it is possible to
 * generate it on the fly.)</p>
 *
 * <p>A <code>Type</code> is uniquely determined by its type class (a
 * <code>TypeClass</code>) and its type name (a <code>String</code>); these two
 * will never be <code>null</code>.  A <code>Type</code> may have an additional
 * "z class" (a <code>java.lang.Class</code>), giving a Java class type that
 * corresponds to the UNO type.  Also, a <code>Type</code> can cache a type
 * description (a <code>com.sun.star.uno.ITypeDescription</code>), which can be
 * computed and set by <code>TypeDescription.getTypeDescription</code>.
