darcy@1054 35 * A scanning visitor of program elements with default behavior
darcy@1054 36 * appropriate for the {@link SourceVersion#RELEASE_8 RELEASE_8}
darcy@1054 37 * source version. The <tt>visit<i>XYZ</i></tt> methods in this
darcy@1054 38 * class scan their component elements by calling {@code scan} on
darcy@1054 39 * their {@linkplain Element#getEnclosedElements enclosed elements},
darcy@1054 40 * {@linkplain ExecutableElement#getParameters parameters}, etc., as
darcy@1054 41 * indicated in the individual method specifications. A subclass can
darcy@1054 42 * control the order elements are visited by overriding the
darcy@1054 43 * <tt>visit<i>XYZ</i></tt> methods. Note that clients of a scanner
darcy@1054 44 * may get the desired behavior be invoking {@code v.scan(e, p)} rather
darcy@1054 45 * than {@code v.visit(e, p)} on the root objects of interest.
darcy@1054 46 *
darcy@1054 47 * <p>When a subclass overrides a <tt>visit<i>XYZ</i></tt> method, the
darcy@1054 48 * new method can cause the enclosed elements to be scanned in the
darcy@1054 49 * default way by calling <tt>super.visit<i>XYZ</i></tt>. In this
darcy@1054 50 * fashion, the concrete visitor can control the ordering of traversal
darcy@1054 51 * over the component elements with respect to the additional
darcy@1054 52 * processing; for example, consistently calling
darcy@1054 53 * <tt>super.visit<i>XYZ</i></tt> at the start of the overridden
darcy@1054 54 * methods will yield a preorder traversal, etc. If the component
darcy@1054 55 * elements should be traversed in some other order, instead of
darcy@1054 56 * calling <tt>super.visit<i>XYZ</i></tt>, an overriding visit method
darcy@1054 57 * should call {@code scan} with the elements in the desired order.
darcy@1054 58 *
darcy@1054 59 * <p> Methods in this class may be overridden subject to their
darcy@1054 60 * general contract. Note that annotating methods in concrete
darcy@1054 61 * subclasses with {@link java.lang.Override @Override} will help
darcy@1054 62 * ensure that methods are overridden as intended.
darcy@1054 63 *
darcy@1054 64 * <p> <b>WARNING:</b> The {@code ElementVisitor} interface
darcy@1054 65 * implemented by this class may have methods added to it in the
darcy@1054 66 * future to accommodate new, currently unknown, language structures
darcy@1054 67 * added to future versions of the Java&trade; programming language.
darcy@1054 68 * Therefore, methods whose names begin with {@code "visit"} may be
darcy@1054 69 * added to this class in the future; to avoid incompatibilities,
darcy@1054 70 * classes which extend this class should not declare any instance
darcy@1054 71 * methods with names beginning with {@code "visit"}.
darcy@1054 72 *
darcy@1054 73 * <p>When such a new visit method is added, the default
darcy@1054 74 * implementation in this class will be to call the {@link
darcy@1054 75 * #visitUnknown visitUnknown} method. A new element scanner visitor
darcy@1054 76 * class will also be introduced to correspond to the new language
darcy@1054 77 * level; this visitor will have different default behavior for the
darcy@1054 78 * visit method in question. When the new visitor is introduced, all
darcy@1054 79 * or portions of this visitor may be deprecated.
darcy@1054 80 *
darcy@1054 81 * @param <R> the return type of this visitor's methods. Use {@link
darcy@1054 82 * Void} for visitors that do not need to return results.
darcy@1054 83 * @param <P> the type of the additional parameter to this visitor's
darcy@1054 84 * methods. Use {@code Void} for visitors that do not need an
darcy@1054 85 * additional parameter.
