Declaration
init?(for aClass: AnyParameters
aClassThe class for which to return a class description. See note below for important details.
Return Value
The class description for a, or nil if a class description cannot be found.
Discussion
If a class description for a is not found, the method posts an NSClassDescriptionNeededForClassNotification on behalf of a, allowing an observer to register a class description. The method then checks for a class description again. Returns nil if a class description is still not found.
If you have an instance of the receiver’s class, you can use the NSObject instance method class instead.
