 /**
  * Represents a class or interface program element.  Provides access
  * to information about the type and its members.  Note that an enum
  * type is a kind of class and an annotation type is a kind of
  * interface.
  *
  * <p> <a name="ELEM_VS_TYPE"></a>
  * While a {@code TypeElement} represents a class or interface
  * <i>element</i>, a {@link DeclaredType} represents a class
  * or interface <i>type</i>, the latter being a use
  * (or <i>invocation</i>) of the former.
  * The distinction is most apparent with generic types,
  * for which a single element can define a whole
  * family of types.  For example, the element
  * {@code java.util.Set} corresponds to the parameterized types
  * {@code java.util.Set<String>} and {@code java.util.Set<Number>}
  * (and many others), and to the raw type {@code java.util.Set}.
  *
  * <p> Each method of this interface that returns a list of elements
  * will return them in the order that is natural for the underlying
  * source of program information.  For example, if the underlying
  * source of information is Java source code, then the elements will be
  * returned in source code order.
