      public static ClassInfo buildClassInfo(Class<?> type) throws MappingException
      Builds a new ClassInfo describing the given Class. Annotations for the class and its fields are read using the TargetAwareAnnotationProcessingServices defined by
      invalid reference 
      #setClassAnnotationProcessingService(TargetAwareAnnotationProcessingService)
      and
      invalid reference 
      #setFieldAnnotationProcessingService(TargetAwareAnnotationProcessingService)
      . The information is stored in the ClassInfo and its related FieldInfos.
      Parameters:
      type - The Class Object representing the Class that shall be described.
      Returns:
      a new ClassInfo describing the given Class or null if the given type was not describable.
      Throws:
      MappingException - if annotation placement is invalid (field and property access for the same field) or if composite keys are used!
