Uses of Interface
javax.lang.model.element.Element
Packages that use Element
Package
Description
Provides interfaces to represent source code as abstract syntax
trees (AST).
Provides utilities for operations on abstract syntax trees (AST).
Facilities for declaring annotation processors and for
allowing annotation processors to communicate with an annotation processing
tool environment.
Interfaces used to model elements of the Java programming language.
Interfaces used to model Java programming language types.
Utilities to assist in the processing of
program elements and
types.
The Doclet API provides an environment which, in conjunction with
the Language Model API and Compiler Tree API, allows clients
to inspect the source-level structures of programs and
libraries, including API comments embedded in the source.
