Class ImportHandler

Contents

  • public class ImportHandler
extends Object
    Handles imports of class names and package names. An imported package name implicitly imports all the classes in the package. A class that has been imported can be used without its package name. The name is resolved to its full (package and class) name at evaluation time.
