  This class provides:

  <ul>
    <li>Methods for fetching the ISO name or description of a code list:<ul>
      <li><a href="#getStandardName(java.lang.Class)"><code>getStandardName(Class)</code></a>   for ISO name</li>

      <li><a href="#getDescription(java.lang.Class)"><code>getDescription(Class)</code></a>    for a description</li>
    </ul></li>
    <li>Methods for fetching the ISO name or description of a code value:<ul>
      <li><a href="#getCodeName(org.opengis.util.CodeList)"><code>getCodeName(CodeList)</code></a>    for ISO name,</li>
      <li><a href="#getCodeTitle(org.opengis.util.CodeList)"><code>getCodeTitle(CodeList)</code></a>   for a label or title</li>
      <li><a href="#getDescription(org.opengis.util.CodeList)"><code>getDescription(CodeList)</code></a> for a more verbose description</li>
    </ul></li>
    <li>Methods for fetching an instance from a name (converse of above <code>get</code> methods):<ul>
      <li><a href="#forCodeName(java.lang.Class,java.lang.String,boolean)"><code>forCodeName(Class, String, boolean)</code></a></li>

    </ul></li>
  </ul>

  <div class="section">Substituting a free text by a code list</div>
  The ISO standard allows to substitute some character strings in the <cite>"free text"</cite> domain
  by a <a href="http://www.geoapi.org/3.0/javadoc/org/opengis/util/CodeList.html?is-external=true" title="class or interface in org.opengis.util" class="externalLink"><code>CodeList</code></a> value.

  <div class="note"><b>Example:</b>
  in the following XML fragment, the <code>&lt;mac:type&gt;</code> value is normally a <code>&lt;gco:CharacterString&gt;</code>
  but has been replaced by a <code>SensorType</code> code below:

  <blockquote><pre>&lt;mac:MI_Instrument&gt;
   &lt;mac:type&gt;
     &lt;gmi:MI_SensorTypeCode
         codeList="http://standards.iso.org/…snip…/codelists.xml#CI_SensorTypeCode"
         codeListValue="RADIOMETER"&gt;Radiometer&lt;/gmi:MI_SensorTypeCode&gt;
   &lt;/mac:type&gt;
 &lt;/mac:MI_Instrument&gt;</pre></blockquote>
  </div>

  Such substitution can be done with:

  <ul>
    <li><a href="#getCodeTitle(org.opengis.util.CodeList)"><code>getCodeTitle(CodeList)</code></a> for getting the <a href="http://www.geoapi.org/3.0/javadoc/org/opengis/util/InternationalString.html?is-external=true" title="class or interface in org.opengis.util" class="externalLink"><code>InternationalString</code></a> instance
        to store in a metadata property.</li>
    <li><a href="#forCodeTitle(java.lang.CharSequence)"><code>forCodeTitle(CharSequence)</code></a> for retrieving the <a href="http://www.geoapi.org/3.0/javadoc/org/opengis/util/CodeList.html?is-external=true" title="class or interface in org.opengis.util" class="externalLink"><code>CodeList</code></a> previously stored as an

  <div class="note"><b>Examples:</b>
  <ul>
    <li><code>forStandardName("CI_Citation")</code>      returns <code><a href="http://www.geoapi.org/3.0/javadoc/org/opengis/metadata/citation/Citation.html?is-external=true" title="class or interface in org.opengis.metadata.citation" class="externalLink">Citation</a>.class</code></li>

  </div>

  The package prefix (e.g. <code>"CI_"</code> in <code>"CI_Citation"</code>) can be omitted.
  The flexibility is provided for allowing transition to newer ISO standards,
  which are dropping the package prefixes.
  For example <code>"CS_AxisDirection"</code> in ISO 19111:2007
  has been renamed <code>"AxisDirection"</code> in ISO 19111:2018.

  <p>Only identifiers for the stable part of GeoAPI or for some Apache SIS classes are recognized.
  This method does not handle the identifiers for interfaces in the <code>geoapi-pending</code> module.</p>

  <div class="note"><b>Future evolution:</b>
  when a new ISO type does not yet have a corresponding GeoAPI interface,
  this method may temporarily return an Apache SIS class instead, until a future version can use the interface.
  For example <code>forStandardName("CI_Individual")</code> returns
  <code><a href="../../metadata/iso/citation/DefaultIndividual.html" title="class in org.apache.sis.metadata.iso.citation">DefaultIndividual</a>.class</code> in Apache SIS versions
  that depend on GeoAPI 3.0, but the return type may be changed to <code>Individual.class</code> when Apache SIS will
