API Note:This method is included alongside latest to allow identification of situations where the language model API is running on a platform version different than the latest version modeled by the API. One way that sort of situation can occur is if an IDE or similar tool is using the API to model source version N while running on platform version (N - 1). Running in this configuration is supported by the API. Running an API on platform versions earlier than (N - 1) or later than N may or may not work as an implementation detail. If an annotation processor was generating code to run under the current execution environment, the processor should only use platform features up to the latestSupported release, which may be earlier than the latest release.

Returns whether or not name is a syntactically valid identifier (simple name) or keyword in the latest source version.

This pattern matches regular identifiers, keywords, restricted keywords, restricted identifiers and the literals "true", "false", "null". The method returns false for all other strings.
Params:

Returns:true if this string is a syntactically valid identifier or keyword, false otherwise.

Returns whether or not name is a syntactically valid qualified name in the latest source version. Unlike isIdentifier, this method returns false for keywords, boolean literals, and the null literal. This method returns true for restricted keywords and restricted identifiers
