/**
 * @class   vtkInformationKey
 * @brief   Superclass for vtkInformation keys.
 *
 * vtkInformationKey is the superclass for all keys used to access the
 * map represented by vtkInformation.  The vtkInformation::Set and
 * vtkInformation::Get methods of vtkInformation are accessed by
 * information keys.  A key is a pointer to an instance of a subclass
 * of vtkInformationKey.  The type of the subclass determines the
 * overload of Set/Get that is selected.  This ensures that the type
 * of value stored in a vtkInformation instance corresponding to a
 * given key matches the type expected for that key.
