Description Theodora Yeung CLA 2005-03-10 18:11:06 EST 
Currently, one could use the API in AST.java to build a parameterized type 
that does not have type argugments and wildcard type that does not have a 
bound. This request is to extend the feature to support building of any legal 
paramterized type and wildcard type.

For example: Support creation of parameterized type from the 
string "java.util.HashMap<java.lang.String, java.lang.String>" and to support 
creating of wildcard type from the string "java.util.Collection<? extends 
java.util.List>"
