<P>
Abstract base class of AST nodes that represent statements.
There are many kinds of statements.
<p>
The grammar combines both Statement and BlockStatement.
For JLS2:
<pre>
Statement:
Block
IfStatement
ForStatement
WhileStatement
DoStatement
TryStatement
SwitchStatement
SynchronizedStatement
ReturnStatement
ThrowStatement
BreakStatement
ContinueStatement
EmptyStatement
ExpressionStatement
LabeledStatement
AssertStatement
VariableDeclarationStatement
TypeDeclarationStatement
ConstructorInvocation
SuperConstructorInvocation
</pre>
For JLS3, an enhanced for node type was added:
<pre>
Statement:
Block
IfStatement
ForStatement
EnhancedForStatement
WhileStatement
DoStatement
TryStatement
SwitchStatement
SynchronizedStatement
ReturnStatement
ThrowStatement
BreakStatement
ContinueStatement
EmptyStatement
ExpressionStatement
LabeledStatement
AssertStatement
VariableDeclarationStatement
TypeDeclarationStatement
ConstructorInvocation
SuperConstructorInvocation
</pre>
</p>
Provisional API: This class/interface is part of an interim API that is still under development and expected to
change significantly before reaching stability. It is being made available at this early stage to solicit feedback
from pioneering adopters on the understanding that any code that uses this API will almost certainly be broken
(repeatedly) as the API evolves.

<DL>
<DD><B>Deprecated.</B>&nbsp;<I>This feature was removed in the 2.1 release because it was
only a partial, and inadequate, solution to the issue of associating
comments with statements. Furthermore, AST.parseCompilationUnit did not
associate leading comments, making this moot. Clients that need to access
comments preceding a statement should either consult the compilation
unit's <A HREF="../../../../../../org/eclipse/wst/jsdt/core/dom/JavaScriptUnit.html#getCommentList()">comment table</A>
or use a scanner to reanalyze the source text immediately preceding
the statement's source range.</I>
<P>
<DD>Returns the leading comment string, including the starting
and ending comment delimiters, and any embedded line breaks.
<p>
A leading comment is a comment that appears before the statement.
It may be either a traditional comment or an end-of-line comment.
Traditional comments must begin with "/&#42;, may contain line breaks,
and must end with "&#42;/. End-of-line comments must begin with "//",
must end with a line delimiter (as per JLS 3.7), and must not contain
line breaks.
