Returns application class name set in the VkApp constructor. This application class name is used when loading application resources.

virtual const char *className() const

Returns class name of VkApp (or subclass) instance being used. By default, this is "VkApp". Unlike all other ViewKit ObjectPak components, the VkApp class does not use the value returned by className() when loading resources; instead, it uses the application class name that you provide as an argument to the VkApp constructor. This allows you to set the application class name without creating a subclass of VkApp.
