 /**
  * The interface for an annotation processor.
  *
  * <p>Annotation processing happens in a sequence of {@linkplain
  * javax.annotation.processing.RoundEnvironment rounds}.  On each
  * round, a processor may be asked to {@linkplain #process process} a
  * subset of the annotations found on the source and class files
  * produced by a prior round.  The inputs to the first round of
  * processing are the initial inputs to a run of the tool; these
  * initial inputs can be regarded as the output of a virtual zeroth
  * round of processing.  If a processor was asked to process on a
  * given round, it will be asked to process on subsequent rounds,
  * including the last round, even if there are no annotations for it
  * to process.  The tool infrastructure may also ask a processor to
  * process files generated implicitly by the tool's operation.
  *
  * <p> Each implementation of a {@code Processor} must provide a
  * public no-argument constructor to be used by tools to instantiate
  * the processor.  The tool infrastructure will interact with classes
  * implementing this interface as follows:
  *
  * <ol>
  *
  * <li>If an existing {@code Processor} object is not being used, to
  * create an instance of a processor the tool calls the no-arg
  * constructor of the processor class.
  *
  * <li>Next, the tool calls the {@link #init init} method with
  * an appropriate {@code ProcessingEnvironment}.
  *
  * <li>Afterwards, the tool calls {@link #getSupportedAnnotationTypes
  * getSupportedAnnotationTypes}, {@link #getSupportedOptions
  * getSupportedOptions}, and {@link #getSupportedSourceVersion
  * getSupportedSourceVersion}.  These methods are only called once per
  * run, not on each round.
  *
  * <li>As appropriate, the tool calls the {@link #process process}
  * method on the {@code Processor} object; a new {@code Processor}
  * object is <em>not</em> created for each round.
  *
  * </ol>
  *
  * If a processor object is created and used without the above
  * protocol being followed, then the processor's behavior is not
  * defined by this interface specification.
  *
  * <p> The tool uses a <i>discovery process</i> to find annotation
  * processors and decide whether or not they should be run.  By
  * configuring the tool, the set of potential processors can be
  * controlled.  For example, for a {@link javax.tools.JavaCompiler
  * JavaCompiler} the list of candidate processors to run can be
  * {@linkplain javax.tools.JavaCompiler.CompilationTask#setProcessors
  * set directly} or controlled by a {@linkplain
  * javax.tools.StandardLocation#ANNOTATION_PROCESSOR_PATH search path}
  * used for a {@linkplain java.util.ServiceLoader service-style}
  * lookup.  Other tool implementations may have different
  * configuration mechanisms, such as command line options; for
  * details, refer to the particular tool's documentation.  Which
  * processors the tool asks to {@linkplain #process run} is a function
  * of the types of the annotations <em>{@linkplain AnnotatedConstruct present}</em>
  * on the {@linkplain
  * RoundEnvironment#getRootElements root elements}, what {@linkplain
  * #getSupportedAnnotationTypes annotation types a processor
  * supports}, and whether or not a processor {@linkplain #process
  * claims the annotation types it processes}.  A processor will be asked to
  * process a subset of the annotation types it supports, possibly an
  * empty set.
  *
  * For a given round, the tool computes the set of annotation types
  * that are present on the elements enclosed within the root elements.
  * If there is at least one annotation type present, then as
  * processors claim annotation types, they are removed from the set of
  * unmatched annotation types.  When the set is empty or no more
  * processors are available, the round has run to completion.  If
  * there are no annotation types present, annotation processing still
  * occurs but only <i>universal processors</i> which support
  * processing all annotation types, {@code "*"}, can claim the (empty)
  * set of annotation types.
  *
  * <p>An annotation type is considered present if there is at least
  * one annotation of that type present on an element enclosed within
  * the root elements of a round. For this purpose, a type parameter is
  * considered to be enclosed by its {@linkplain
  * TypeParameterElement#getGenericElement generic
  * element}. Annotations on {@linkplain
  * java.lang.annotation.ElementType#TYPE_USE type uses}, as opposed to
  * annotations on elements, are ignored when computing whether or not
  * an annotation type is present.
  *
  * <p>An annotation is present if it meets the definition of being
  * present given in {@link AnnotatedConstruct}. In brief, an
  * annotation is considered present for the purposes of discovery if
  * it is directly present or present via inheritance. An annotation is
  * <em>not</em> considered present by virtue of being wrapped by a
  * container annotation. Operationally, this is equivalent to an
  * annotation being present on an element if and only if it would be
  * included in the results of {@link
  * Elements#getAllAnnotationMirrors(Element)} called on that element. Since
  * annotations inside container annotations are not considered
  * present, to properly process {@linkplain
  * java.lang.annotation.Repeatable repeatable annotation types},
  * processors are advised to include both the repeatable annotation
  * type and its containing annotation type in the set of {@linkplain
  * #getSupportedAnnotationTypes() supported annotation types} of a
  * processor.
  *
  * <p>Note that if a processor supports {@code "*"} and returns {@code
  * true}, all annotations are claimed.  Therefore, a universal
  * processor being used to, for example, implement additional validity
  * checks should return {@code false} so as to not prevent other such
  * checkers from being able to run.
  *
  * <p>If a processor throws an uncaught exception, the tool may cease
  * other active annotation processors.  If a processor raises an
  * error, the current round will run to completion and the subsequent
  * round will indicate an {@linkplain RoundEnvironment#errorRaised
  * error was raised}.  Since annotation processors are run in a
  * cooperative environment, a processor should throw an uncaught
  * exception only in situations where no error recovery or reporting
  * is feasible.
  *
  * <p>The tool environment is not required to support annotation
  * processors that access environmental resources, either {@linkplain
  * RoundEnvironment per round} or {@linkplain ProcessingEnvironment
  * cross-round}, in a multi-threaded fashion.
  *
  * <p>If the methods that return configuration information about the
  * annotation processor return {@code null}, return other invalid
  * input, or throw an exception, the tool infrastructure must treat
  * this as an error condition.
  *
  * <p>To be robust when running in different tool implementations, an
  * annotation processor should have the following properties:
  *
  * <ol>
  *
  * <li>The result of processing a given input is not a function of the presence or absence
  * of other inputs (orthogonality).
  *
  * <li>Processing the same input produces the same output (consistency).
  *
  * <li>Processing input <i>A</i> followed by processing input <i>B</i>
  * is equivalent to processing <i>B</i> then <i>A</i>
  * (commutativity)
  *
  * <li>Processing an input does not rely on the presence of the output
  * of other annotation processors (independence)
  *
  * </ol>
  *
  * <p>The {@link Filer} interface discusses restrictions on how
  * processors can operate on files.
  *
  * <p>Note that implementors of this interface may find it convenient
  * to extend {@link AbstractProcessor} rather than implementing this
  * interface directly.

     * describing why there are no completions.
     *
     * <p>Completions are informative and may reflect additional
     * validity checks performed by annotation processors.  For
     * example, consider the simple annotation:
     *

     * (A Mersenne prime is prime number of the form
     * 2<sup><i>n</i></sup> - 1.) Given an {@code AnnotationMirror}
     * for this annotation type, a list of all such primes in the
     * {@code int} range could be returned without examining any other
     * arguments to {@code getCompletions}:
     *
     * <blockquote>
     * <pre>
     * import static javax.annotation.processing.Completions.*;
     * ...
     * return Arrays.asList({@link Completions#of(String) of}(&quot;3&quot;),

     * </blockquote>
     *
     * A more informative set of completions would include the number

     * <blockquote>
     * <pre>
     * return Arrays.asList({@link Completions#of(String, String) of}(&quot;3&quot;,          &quot;M2&quot;),
     *                      of(&quot;7&quot;,          &quot;M3&quot;),
     *                      of(&quot;31&quot;,         &quot;M5&quot;),

     * </blockquote>
     *
     * However, if the {@code userText} is available, it can be checked
     * to see if only a subset of the Mersenne primes are valid.  For
     * example, if the user has typed
     *
     * <blockquote>
     * <code>
     * &#064;MersennePrime(1
     * </code>
     * </blockquote>
     *
     * the value of {@code userText} will be {@code "1"}; and only
     * two of the primes are possible completions:
     *
     * <blockquote>
     * <pre>
     * return Arrays.asList(of(&quot;127&quot;,        &quot;M7&quot;),
     *                      of(&quot;131071&quot;,     &quot;M17&quot;));
     * </pre>
     * </blockquote>
     *
     * Sometimes no valid completion is possible.  For example, there
     * is no in-range Mersenne prime starting with 9:
     *
     * <blockquote>
     * <code>
     * &#064;MersennePrime(9
     * </code>
     * </blockquote>
     *
     * An appropriate response in this case is to either return an
     * empty list of completions,
     *
     * <blockquote>
     * <pre>
     * return Collections.emptyList();
     * </pre>
     * </blockquote>
     *
     * or a single empty completion with a helpful message
     *
     * <blockquote>
     * <pre>
