<init>

InheritanceLevel(derived: Class<*>, base: Class<*>)

Calculates number of superclasses between base and derived class.

This class is thread safe.

Result interpretation:

Integer.MIN_VALUE -> classes are not related. (ex. matching FileNotFoundException with RuntimeException);
0 -> classes are identical. (ex. matching IOException with IOException);
1 -> single level inheritance. (ex. matching FileNotFoundException with IOException);
2 -> two inheritance levels. (ex. matching FileNotFoundException with Exception).

derived - Derived class

base - Base class
