31 * A skeletal visitor of types with default behavior appropriate for
32 * the {@link javax.lang.model.SourceVersion#RELEASE_6 RELEASE_6}
33 * source version.
34 *
35 * <p> <b>WARNING:</b> The {@code TypeVisitor} interface implemented
36 * by this class may have methods added to it in the future to
37 * accommodate new, currently unknown, language structures added to
38 * future versions of the Java™ programming language.
39 * Therefore, methods whose names begin with {@code "visit"} may be
40 * added to this class in the future; to avoid incompatibilities,
41 * classes which extend this class should not declare any instance
42 * methods with names beginning with {@code "visit"}.
43 *
44 * <p>When such a new visit method is added, the default
45 * implementation in this class will be to call the {@link
46 * #visitUnknown visitUnknown} method. A new abstract type visitor
47 * class will also be introduced to correspond to the new language
48 * level; this visitor will have different default behavior for the
49 * visit method in question. When the new visitor is introduced, all
50 * or portions of this visitor may be deprecated.
51 *
52 * <p>Note that adding a default implementation of a new visit method
53 * in a visitor class will occur instead of adding a <em>default
54 * method</em> directly in the visitor interface since a Java SE 8
55 * language feature cannot be used to this version of the API since
56 * this version is required to be runnable on Java SE 7
57 * implementations. Future versions of the API that are only required
58 * to run on Java SE 8 and later may take advantage of default methods
59 * in this situation.
60 *
61 * @param <R> the return type of this visitor's methods. Use {@link
62 * Void} for visitors that do not need to return results.
63 * @param <P> the type of the additional parameter to this visitor's
64 * methods. Use {@code Void} for visitors that do not need an
65 * additional parameter.
