Constraint mapping creational context representing a type. Allows place
class-level constraints on that type, define its default group sequence (and provider)
and to navigate to other constraint targets.
Author: Kevin Pollet <kevin.pollet@serli.com> (C) 2011 SERLI, Gunnar Morling Type parameters: - <C> – The type represented by this creational context.
