Description
The visitor pattern is relatively unfamiliar to Java programmers.  The vistor classes in JSR 269 should include some examples of visitor pattern use.

Comments
The visitor pattern is more familiar now than when the javax.lang.model was introduced to the platform. Closing as will not fix.
