 * Method declaration AST node type. A method declaration
 * is the union of a method declaration and a constructor declaration.
 * For 2.0 (corresponding to JLS2):
 * <pre>
 * MethodDeclaration:
 *    [ Javadoc ] { Modifier } ( Type | <b>void</b> ) Identifier <b>(</b>
 *        [ FormalParameter 
 * 		     { <b>,</b> FormalParameter } ] <b>)</b> {<b>[</b> <b>]</b> }
 *        [ <b>throws</b> TypeName { <b>,</b> TypeName } ] ( Block | <b>;</b> )
 * ConstructorDeclaration:
 *    [ Javadoc ] { Modifier } Identifier <b>(</b>
 * 		  [ FormalParameter
 * 			 { <b>,</b> FormalParameter } ] <b>)</b>
 *        [<b>throws</b> TypeName { <b>,</b> TypeName } ] Block
 * </pre>
 * For 3.0 (corresponding to JLS3), type parameters and reified modifiers
 * (and annotations) were added:
 * <pre>
 * MethodDeclaration:
 *    [ Javadoc ] { ExtendedModifier }
 *		  [ <b>&lt;</b> TypeParameter { <b>,</b> TypeParameter } <b>&gt;</b> ]
 *        ( Type | <b>void</b> ) Identifier <b>(</b>
 *        [ FormalParameter 
 * 		     { <b>,</b> FormalParameter } ] <b>)</b> {<b>[</b> <b>]</b> }
 *        [ <b>throws</b> TypeName { <b>,</b> TypeName } ] ( Block | <b>;</b> )
 * ConstructorDeclaration:
 *    [ Javadoc ] { ExtendedModifier } Identifier <b>(</b>
 * 		  [ FormalParameter
 * 			 { <b>,</b> FormalParameter } ] <b>)</b>
 *        [<b>throws</b> TypeName { <b>,</b> TypeName } ] Block
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * When a Javadoc comment is present, the source
 * range begins with the first character of the "/**" comment delimiter.
 * When there is no Javadoc comment, the source range begins with the first
 * character of the first modifier keyword (if modifiers), or the
 * first character of the "&lt;" token (method, no modifiers, type parameters), 
 * or the first character of the return type (method, no modifiers, no type
 * parameters), or the first character of the identifier (constructor, 
 * no modifiers). The source range extends through the last character of the
 * ";" token (if no body), or the last character of the block (if body).
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Note: Support for generic types is an experimental language feature 
 * under discussion in JSR-014 and under consideration for inclusion
 * in the 1.5 release of J2SE. The support here is therefore tentative
 * and subject to change.
