/**
* This interface supports the creation of new files by an annotation
* processor. Files created in this way will be known to the
* annotation processing tool implementing this interface, better
* enabling the tool to manage them. Source and class files so
* created will be {@linkplain RoundEnvironment#getRootElements
* considered for processing} by the tool in a subsequent {@linkplain
* RoundEnvironment round of processing} after the {@code close}
* method has been called on the {@code Writer} or {@code
* OutputStream} used to write the contents of the file.
*
* Three kinds of files are distinguished: source files, class files,
* and auxiliary resource files.
*
* <p> There are two distinguished supported locations (subtrees
* within the logical file system) where newly created files are
* placed: one for {@linkplain
* javax.tools.StandardLocation#SOURCE_OUTPUT new source files}, and
* one for {@linkplain javax.tools.StandardLocation#CLASS_OUTPUT new
* class files}. (These might be specified on a tool's command line,
* for example, using flags such as {@code -s} and {@code -d}.) The
* actual locations for new source files and new class files may or
* may not be distinct on a particular run of the tool. Resource
* files may be created in either location. The methods for reading
* and writing resources take a relative name argument. A relative
* name is a non-null, non-empty sequence of path segments separated
* by {@code '/'}; {@code '.'} and {@code '..'} are invalid path
* segments. A valid relative name must match the
* "path-rootless" rule of <a
* href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3986.txt">RFC 3986</a>, section
* 3.3.
*
* <p>The file creation methods take a variable number of arguments to
* allow the <em>originating elements</em> to be provided as hints to
* the tool infrastructure to better manage dependencies. The
* originating elements are the types or packages (representing {@code
* package-info} files) or modules (representing {@code
* module-info} files) which caused an annotation processor to
* attempt to create a new file. For example, if an annotation
* processor tries to create a source file, {@code
* GeneratedFromUserSource}, in response to processing
*
* <blockquote><pre>
* @Generate
* public class UserSource {}
* </pre></blockquote>
*
* the type element for {@code UserSource} should be passed as part of
* the creation method call as in:
*
* <blockquote><pre>
* filer.createSourceFile("GeneratedFromUserSource",
* eltUtils.getTypeElement("UserSource"));
* </pre></blockquote>
*
* If there are no originating elements, none need to be passed. This
* information may be used in an incremental environment to determine
* the need to rerun processors or remove generated files.
* Non-incremental environments may ignore the originating element
* information.
*
* <p> During each run of an annotation processing tool, a file with a
* given pathname may be created only once. If that file already
* exists before the first attempt to create it, the old contents will
* be deleted. Any subsequent attempt to create the same file during
* a run will throw a {@link FilerException}, as will attempting to
* create both a class file and source file for the same type name or
* same package name. The {@linkplain Processor initial inputs} to
* the tool are considered to be created by the zeroth round;
* therefore, attempting to create a source or class file
* corresponding to one of those inputs will result in a {@link
* FilerException}.
*
* <p> In general, processors must not knowingly attempt to overwrite
* existing files that were not generated by some processor. A {@code
* Filer} may reject attempts to open a file corresponding to an
* existing type, like {@code java.lang.Object}. Likewise, the
* invoker of the annotation processing tool must not knowingly
* configure the tool such that the discovered processors will attempt
* to overwrite existing files that were not generated.
*
* <p> Processors can indicate a source or class file is generated by
* including a {@link javax.annotation.processing.Generated} annotation if the
* environment is configured so that that type is accessible.
*
* @apiNote Some of the effect of overwriting a file can be
* achieved by using a <i>decorator</i>-style pattern. Instead of
* modifying a class directly, the class is designed so that either
* its superclass is generated by annotation processing or subclasses
* of the class are generated by annotation processing. If the
* subclasses are generated, the parent class may be designed to use
* factories instead of public constructors so that only subclass
* instances would be presented to clients of the parent class.
