A scanning visitor of program elements with default behavior appropriate for the RELEASE_8 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. 
Type parameters:
  • <R> – the return type of this visitor's methods. Use Void for visitors that do not need to return results.
  • <P> – the type of the additional parameter to this visitor's methods. Use Void for visitors that do not need an additional parameter.
