<dd>This service manages type descriptions and acts as a central access point
to every type description. It delegates calls for demanded types to
subsequent
<a href="TypeDescriptionProvider.html">TypeDescriptionProvider</a>s
and may cache type descriptions.<br>
Using cppuhelper's bootstrapping routines bootstrapping an initial
component context, there is a singleton accessable via key
"/singletons/com.sun.star.reflection.theTypeDescriptionManager".
This singleton object is hooked into the C UNO runtime typelib and
lives until the context is shut down.<br>
