Answering "Get a IType from IField" question on newsgroup, it appears that documentation for IMember.getDeclaringType() method is not clear!

It looks like more than a copy/paste of getClassFile() or getCompilationUnit() method rather than a documentation of what this method really does...

I have misunderstood getDeclaringType() behavior. Documentation is OK => close as INVALID

Verified for 3.3 M5 using build I20070205-1824.
