    Description

      Summary

      Update the existing javax.lang.model utility visitors for the 9 release to indicate they are appropriate for the 11 release as well.

      Problem

      The javax.lang.model API was added in Java SE 6. In each of Java SE 7, 8, and 9, new sets of utility visitors were added for each release, for example starting with AbstractElementVisitor6, types AbstractElementVisitor7, AbstractElementVisitor8, AbstractElementVisitor8 were added in SE 7 and 8, respectively. Similar patterns were followed for ElementKindVisitor6, and the rest of the utility visitors.

      In Java SE 10, there were no language changes requiring new operational behavior from the root visitors. Therefore, rather than introducing yet another slate of visitor classes, the 9-era visitors were updated to indicate they are appropriate for 10 as well (JDK-8193201).

      In the absence of language changes in 11 which would require new operational behavior from the visitors, the 9-era visitors should be updated to indicate they are appropriate for releases 9 through 11.

      Solution

      Update the specification and SupportedSourceVersion annotations on the 9-era visitor classes to indicate they are appropriate for release 11.
