55 * may not be distinct on a particular run of the tool. Resource

61 * "path-rootless" rule of <a
62 * href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3986.txt">RFC 3986</a>, section
63 * 3.3.
64 *
65 * <p>The file creation methods take a variable number of arguments to
66 * allow the <em>originating elements</em> to be provided as hints to
67 * the tool infrastructure to better manage dependencies. The
68 * originating elements are the types or packages (representing {@code
69 * package-info} files) which caused an annotation processor to
70 * attempt to create a new file. For example, if an annotation
71 * processor tries to create a source file, {@code
72 * GeneratedFromUserSource}, in response to processing
73 *
74 * <blockquote><pre>
75 * @Generate
76 * public class UserSource {}
77 * </pre></blockquote>
78 *
79 * the type element for {@code UserSource} should be passed as part of
80 * the creation method call as in:
81 *
82 * <blockquote><pre>
83 * filer.createSourceFile("GeneratedFromUserSource",
84 * eltUtils.getTypeElement("UserSource"));
85 * </pre></blockquote>
86 *
87 * If there are no originating elements, none need to be passed. This
88 * information may be used in an incremental environment to determine
89 * the need to rerun processors or remove generated files.
90 * Non-incremental environments may ignore the originating element
91 * information.
92 *
93 * <p> During each run of an annotation processing tool, a file with a
94 * given pathname may be created only once. If that file already
95 * exists before the first attempt to create it, the old contents will
96 * be deleted. Any subsequent attempt to create the same file during
97 * a run will throw a {@link FilerException}, as will attempting to
98 * create both a class file and source file for the same type name or
99 * same package name. The {@linkplain Processor initial inputs} to
100 * the tool are considered to be created by the zeroth round;
101 * therefore, attempting to create a source or class file
102 * corresponding to one of those inputs will result in a {@link
103 * FilerException}.
104 *
105 * <p> In general, processors must not knowingly attempt to overwrite
106 * existing files that were not generated by some processor. A {@code
107 * Filer} may reject attempts to open a file corresponding to an
108 * existing type, like {@code java.lang.Object}. Likewise, the
109 * invoker of the annotation processing tool must not knowingly
110 * configure the tool such that the discovered processors will attempt
111 * to overwrite existing files that were not generated.
112 *
113 * <p> Processors can indicate a source or class file is generated by
114 * including an {@link javax.annotation.Generated @Generated}
115 * annotation.
116 *
117 * <p> Note that some of the effect of overwriting a file can be
118 * achieved by using a <i>decorator</i>-style pattern. Instead of
119 * modifying a class directly, the class is designed so that either
120 * its superclass is generated by annotation processing or subclasses
121 * of the class are generated by annotation processing. If the
122 * subclasses are generated, the parent class may be designed to use
123 * factories instead of public constructors so that only subclass
124 * instances would be presented to clients of the parent class.
