Description Markus Keller CLA 2004-04-23 07:09:07 EDT 
The javadoc of SearchMatch#getElement() should explicitly tell that getElement()
returns the element in which the match occured, and not the matched element
(which would probably also be interesting, but is currently not available).
Comment 1 Jerome Lanneluc CLA 2004-05-12 09:39:16 EDT 
Added the following to the Java doc:
* In case of a reference match, this is the inner-most enclosing element of 
the reference. 
* In case of a declaration match, this is the declaration.
