```
ClassInformation getInformation(java.lang.String internalClassName)
```
    Get information for a class.
    This method returns class information as if it were encountered in a class file. In a class file, if the class is an interface, then its superclass is set to Object. Note that this is different from what Class.getSuperclass() returns when the class represents an interface (it returns null).
    
    Parameters:
    
    internalClassName - internal class name
    
    Returns:
    
    information for that class, or null if not found
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.NullPointerException - if any argument is null
