* Represents a source type in a compilation unit, either as a top-level type or a member type.
* The corresponding syntactic units are ClassDeclaration (JLS2 8.1) and InterfaceDeclaration (JLS2 9.1).
* Enumeration types and annotation types, added in J2SE 1.5, are represented as
* classes and interfaces, respectively.
*
* Allowable child types for a type are IDOMType

,
* IDOMMethod
, and IDOMInitializer
.
* Children are listed in the order in which they appear in the source. The parent of a type
* is a type (in the case of a member type) or a compilation unit (in the case of a top-level type).
