/**
* 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.
* Four kinds of files are distinguished:
* source files, class files, other text files, and other binary files.
* The latter two are collectively referred to as <i>auxiliary</i> files.
* <p/>
* <p> There are two distinguished locations (subtrees within the
* file system) where newly created files are placed:
* one for new source files, and one for new class files.
* (These might be specified on a tool's command line, for example,
* using flags such as <tt>-s</tt> and <tt>-d</tt>.)
* Auxiliary files may be created in either location.
* <p/>
* <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 fail.
