A representation of the model object 'Instance Specification'. An instance specification is a model element that represents an instance in a modeled system. An instance specification has the capability of being a deployment target in a deployment relationship, in the case that it is an instance of a node. It is also has the capability of being a deployed artifact, if it is an instance of an artifact.
The following features are supported:

    Returns:
    
    the value of the 'Classifier' reference list.

    Parameters:
    
    name - The 'Name' of the Classifier to retrieve, or null.
    
    Returns:
    
    The first Classifier with the specified 'Name', or null.

                         boolean ignoreCase,
                         EClass eClass)
```
    Retrieves the first Classifier with the specified 'Name' from the ' Classifier' reference list.
    
    Parameters:
    
    name - The 'Name' of the Classifier to retrieve, or null.
    
    ignoreCase - Whether to ignore case in String comparisons.
    
    eClass - The Ecore class of the Classifier to retrieve, or null.
    
    Returns:
    
    The first Classifier with the specified 'Name', or null.
