All Implemented Interfaces:

ElementVisitor

public class ElementKindVisitor6
extends SimpleElementVisitor6

A visitor of program elements based on their {@linkplain ElementKind kind} with default behavior appropriate for the {@link SourceVersion#RELEASE_6 RELEASE_6} source version. For {@linkplain Element elements} XYZ that may have more than one kind, the visitXYZ methods in this class delegate to the visitXYZKind method corresponding to the first argument's kind. The visitXYZKind methods call {@link #defaultAction defaultAction}, passing their arguments to {@code defaultAction}'s corresponding parameters.

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.

WARNING: The {@code ElementVisitor} interface implemented by this class may have methods added to it or the {@code ElementKind} {@code enum} used in this case may have constants 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"}.

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 abstract element kind 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.
