    `void` | `addNoMapping(Class clazz)` Adds no mapping flag for give class
    `void` | `addUnknownMapping(String className)` Adds no converter flag for given class name FIXME lukaszlenart: maybe it should be merged with NoMapping
    `boolean` | `containsDefaultMapping(String className)` Checks if converter was already defined for given class
    `boolean` | `containsNoMapping(Class clazz)` Check if there is no mapping for given class to convert
    `boolean` | `containsUnknownMapping(String className)` Checks if no mapping was defined for given class name FIXME lukaszlenart: maybe it should be merged with NoMapping
    `TypeConverter` | `getDefaultMapping(String className)` Returns instance of `TypeConverter` associated with given class
    `Map<String,Object>` | `getMapping(Class clazz)` Target class conversion Mappings.

    - #### getDefaultMapping

          TypeConverter getDefaultMapping(String className)

      Returns instance of `TypeConverter` associated with given class
      Parameters:
        `className` - name of the class to return converter for
      Returns:
        instance of `TypeConverter` to be used to convert class

    - #### getMapping

          Map<String,Object> getMapping(Class clazz)

      Target class conversion Mappings.
      Parameters:
        `clazz` - class to convert to/from
      Returns:
        `TypeConverter` for given class

    - #### addMapping

          void addMapping(Class clazz,
                          Map<String,Object> mapping)

      Assign mapping of converters for given class
      Parameters:
        `clazz` - class to convert to/from
        `mapping` - property converters

    - #### containsNoMapping

          boolean containsNoMapping(Class clazz)

      Check if there is no mapping for given class to convert
      Parameters:
        `clazz` - class to convert to/from
      Returns:
        true if mapping couldn't be found

    - #### addNoMapping

          void addNoMapping(Class clazz)

      Adds no mapping flag for give class
      Parameters:
        `clazz` - class to register missing converter

          boolean containsUnknownMapping(String className)

      Checks if no mapping was defined for given class name FIXME lukaszlenart: maybe it should be merged with NoMapping
      Parameters:
        `className` - name of the class to check for
      Returns:
        true if converter was defined for given class name

    - #### addUnknownMapping

          void addUnknownMapping(String className)

      Adds no converter flag for given class name FIXME lukaszlenart: maybe it should be merged with NoMapping
      Parameters:
        `className` - name of the class to mark there is no converter for it
