lincolnthree, here is the final JavaResource interface: http://paste2.org/cIKJ48Hm

6:08 gastaldi: why accept javasource and return T extends javatype?
gastaldi
6:09 because JavaSource is a Source and JavaType can be anything
6:09 hmm
6:09 yeah, that's weird
6:09 a JavaType should allow its contents to be saved
6:10 even if it's a binary one
lincolnthree
6:10 gastaldi: ah makes sense!
6:10 very good
mbenson
6:11 but then does a JavaResource *not* necessarily correspond to a .java file?
gastaldi
6:12 now it can correspond to a .class file
6:12 also
6:12 hmmm
6:13 perhaps we should have a JavaBinaryResource instead
lincolnthree
6:13 yeah probably
gastaldi
6:13 JavaCompiledResource
lincolnthree
6:13 +1
