35 /**
36 * A scanning visitor of program elements with default behavior
37 * appropriate for the {@link SourceVersion#RELEASE_7 RELEASE_7}
38 * source version. The <tt>visit<i>XYZ</i></tt> methods in this
39 * class scan their component elements by calling {@code scan} on
40 * their {@linkplain Element#getEnclosedElements enclosed elements},
41 * {@linkplain ExecutableElement#getParameters parameters}, etc., as
42 * indicated in the individual method specifications. A subclass can
43 * control the order elements are visited by overriding the
44 * <tt>visit<i>XYZ</i></tt> methods. Note that clients of a scanner
45 * may get the desired behavior be invoking {@code v.scan(e, p)} rather
46 * than {@code v.visit(e, p)} on the root objects of interest.
47 *
48 * <p>When a subclass overrides a <tt>visit<i>XYZ</i></tt> method, the
49 * new method can cause the enclosed elements to be scanned in the
50 * default way by calling <tt>super.visit<i>XYZ</i></tt>. In this
51 * fashion, the concrete visitor can control the ordering of traversal
52 * over the component elements with respect to the additional
53 * processing; for example, consistently calling
54 * <tt>super.visit<i>XYZ</i></tt> at the start of the overridden
55 * methods will yield a preorder traversal, etc. If the component
56 * elements should be traversed in some other order, instead of
57 * calling <tt>super.visit<i>XYZ</i></tt>, an overriding visit method
58 * should call {@code scan} with the elements in the desired order.
59 *
60 * <p> Methods in this class may be overridden subject to their
61 * general contract. Note that annotating methods in concrete
62 * subclasses with {@link java.lang.Override @Override} will help
63 * ensure that methods are overridden as intended.
64 *
65 * <p> <b>WARNING:</b> The {@code ElementVisitor} interface
66 * implemented by this class may have methods added to it in the
67 * future to accommodate new, currently unknown, language structures
68 * added to future versions of the Java&trade; programming language.
69 * Therefore, methods whose names begin with {@code "visit"} may be
70 * added to this class in the future; to avoid incompatibilities,
71 * classes which extend this class should not declare any instance
72 * methods with names beginning with {@code "visit"}.
73 *
74 * <p>When such a new visit method is added, the default
75 * implementation in this class will be to call the {@link
76 * #visitUnknown visitUnknown} method. A new element scanner visitor
77 * class will also be introduced to correspond to the new language
78 * level; this visitor will have different default behavior for the
79 * visit method in question. When the new visitor is introduced, all
80 * or portions of this visitor may be deprecated.
81 *
82 * @param <R> the return type of this visitor's methods. Use {@link
83 * Void} for visitors that do not need to return results.
84 * @param <P> the type of the additional parameter to this visitor's
85 * methods. Use {@code Void} for visitors that do not need an
86 * additional parameter.
87 *
88 * @see ElementScanner6
89 * @since 1.7
