Description
With a new source level, a new suite of utility visitors are needed corresponding to that source level.
Comments
Draft release note: The utility visitors in javax.lang.model.util that correspond to the RELEASE_6 source level have been deprecated since the reference implementation regards -source 6 as obsolete. Authors of annotation processors should update their processors to support newer source versions.
