Example
<classes>
 <memberOf key="model.qLike"/>
 <memberOf key="att.declarable"/>
</classes>

This classes element indicates that the element documented (which may be an element or a class) is a member of two distinct classes: model.qLike and att.declarable.

Note
An empty classes element indicates that the element documented is not a member of any class. This should not generally happen.
