 source version.  The visitXYZ methods in this
 class scan their component elements by calling scan on
 their enclosed elements,
 parameters, etc., as
 indicated in the individual method specifications.  A subclass can
 control the order elements are visited by overriding the
 visitXYZ methods.  Note that clients of a scanner
 may get the desired behavior be invoking v.scan(e, p) rather
 than v.visit(e, p) on the root objects of interest.
 When a subclass overrides a visitXYZ method, the
 new method can cause the enclosed elements to be scanned in the
 default way by calling super.visitXYZ.  In this
 fashion, the concrete visitor can control the ordering of traversal
 over the component elements with respect to the additional
 processing; for example, consistently calling
 super.visitXYZ at the start of the overridden
 methods will yield a preorder traversal, etc.  If the component
 elements should be traversed in some other order, instead of
 calling super.visitXYZ, an overriding visit method
 should call scan with the elements in the desired order.
 
 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 ElementVisitor 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 element scanner 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.
