Interface Spec

All Known Implementing Classes:

BaseTypeSpec, PackageSpec

public interface Spec

This interface serves as the parent for all the Spec classes: PackageSpec, ClassInterfaceSpec, MethodSpec and FieldSpec There are two reasons for these classes: 1. to provide a single means of producing package, class, method and field specifications for the where used tools. 2. The only instance of these Spec objects will be in one of the four master container: packageMasterList, classInterfaceMasterList, methodMasterList and fieldMasterList. The other containers in the system in ClassInterface, Method and Field objects, will be KEY'd with a reference to one of these spec's as opposed to an actual instance! This should greatly speed up the where used introspection tool.
