/**
 * A skeletal visitor of program elements with default behavior
 * appropriate for the {@link SourceVersion#RELEASE_8 RELEASE_8}
 * source version.
 *
 *  WARNING: The {@code 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 {@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 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  the return type of this visitor's methods.  Use {@link
 *            Void} for visitors that do not need to return results.
 * @param  the type of the additional parameter to this visitor's
 *            methods.  Use {@code Void} for visitors that do not need an
 *            additional parameter.
 *
 * @see AbstractElementVisitor6
 * @see AbstractElementVisitor7
 * @see AbstractElementVisitor9
 * @since 1.8
