    34  * A visitor of program elements based on their {@linkplain
       
    35  * ElementKind kind} with default behavior appropriate for the {@link
       
    36  * SourceVersion#RELEASE_9 RELEASE_9} source version.  For {@linkplain
       
    37  * Element elements} <tt><i>XYZ</i></tt> that may have more than one
       
    38  * kind, the <tt>visit<i>XYZ</i></tt> methods in this class delegate
       
    39  * to the <tt>visit<i>XYZKind</i></tt> method corresponding to the
       
    40  * first argument's kind.  The <tt>visit<i>XYZKind</i></tt> methods
       
    41  * call {@link #defaultAction defaultAction}, passing their arguments
       
    42  * to {@code defaultAction}'s corresponding parameters.
       
    43  *
       
    44  * <p> Methods in this class may be overridden subject to their
       
    45  * general contract.  Note that annotating methods in concrete
       
    46  * subclasses with {@link java.lang.Override @Override} will help
       
    47  * ensure that methods are overridden as intended.
       
    48  *
       
    49  * <p> <b>WARNING:</b> The {@code ElementVisitor} interface
       
    50  * implemented by this class may have methods added to it or the
       
    51  * {@code ElementKind} {@code enum} used in this case may have
       
    52  * constants added to it in the future to accommodate new, currently
       
    53  * unknown, language structures added to future versions of the
       
    54  * Java&trade; programming language.  Therefore, methods whose names
       
    55  * begin with {@code "visit"} may be added to this class in the
       
    56  * future; to avoid incompatibilities, classes which extend this class
       
    57  * should not declare any instance methods with names beginning with
       
    58  * {@code "visit"}.
       
    59  *
       
    60  * <p>When such a new visit method is added, the default
       
    61  * implementation in this class will be to call the {@link
       
    62  * #visitUnknown visitUnknown} method.  A new abstract element kind
       
    63  * visitor class will also be introduced to correspond to the new
       
    64  * language level; this visitor will have different default behavior
       
    65  * for the visit method in question.  When the new visitor is
       
    66  * introduced, all or portions of this visitor may be deprecated.
       
    67  *
       
    68  * @param <R> the return type of this visitor's methods.  Use {@link
       
    69  *            Void} for visitors that do not need to return results.
       
    70  * @param <P> the type of the additional parameter to this visitor's
       
    71  *            methods.  Use {@code Void} for visitors that do not need an
       
    72  *            additional parameter.
