[forge-dev] Possible to lookup classes in project being forged?

[Lincoln Baxter, III]

You have to cast the class to the type you want. If you don't know the type
ahead of time, you can call javaSource.getSourceType() then do the cast to
the appropriate JavaClass, JavaAnnotation, JavaEnum, or JavaInterface.
