A simple visitor of types with default behavior appropriate for the
RELEASE_7
source version. Visit methods corresponding to
RELEASE_7
and earlier language constructs call
defaultAction
, passing their arguments to
defaultAction
's corresponding parameters.
Methods in this class may be overridden subject to their general contract. Note that annotating methods in concrete subclasses with @Override
will help ensure that methods are overridden as intended.
WARNING: The TypeVisitor
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 "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 "visit"
.
When such a new visit method is added, the default implementation in this class will be to call the visitUnknown
method. A new simple type 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.
