/**

 * A simple visitor for annotation values with default behavior

 * appropriate for the {@link SourceVersion#RELEASE_8 RELEASE_8}

 * source version.  Visit methods call {@link #defaultAction

 * defaultAction} passing their arguments to {@code defaultAction}'s

 * corresponding parameters.

 *

 * <p> Methods in this class may be overridden subject to their

 * general contract.  Note that annotating methods in concrete

 * subclasses with {@link java.lang.Override @Override} will help

 * ensure that methods are overridden as intended.

 *

 * <p> <b>WARNING:</b> The {@code AnnotationValueVisitor} interface

 * implemented by this class may have methods added to it in the

 * future to accommodate new, currently unknown, language structures

 * added to future versions of the Java™ programming language.

 * Therefore, methods whose names begin with {@code "visit"} may be

 * added to this class in the future; to avoid incompatibilities,

 * classes which extend this class should not declare any instance

 * methods with names beginning with {@code "visit"}.

 *

 * <p>When such a new visit method is added, the default

 * implementation in this class will be to call the {@link

 * #visitUnknown visitUnknown} method.  A new simple annotation

 * value visitor class will also be introduced to correspond to the

 * new language level; this visitor will have different default

 * behavior for the visit method in question.  When the new visitor is

 * introduced, all or portions of this visitor may be deprecated.

 *

 * @param <R> the return type of this visitor's methods

 * @param <P> the type of the additional parameter to this visitor's methods.

 *

 * @see SimpleAnnotationValueVisitor6

 * @see SimpleAnnotationValueVisitor7

 * @since 1.8
