8  * This is a Javassist program which produce a new class representing
9  * vectors of a given type. For example,
10  *
11  * <ul>import java.util.Vector by sample.vector.VectorAssistant(int)</ul>
12  *
13  * <p>requests the Javassist preprocessor to substitute the following
14  * lines for the original import declaration:
15  *
16  * <ul><pre>
17  * import java.util.Vector;
18  * import sample.vector.intVector;
19  * </pre></ul>
20  *
21  * <p>The Javassist preprocessor calls <code>VectorAssistant.assist()</code>
22  * and produces class <code>intVector</code> equivalent to:
23  *
24  * <ul><pre>
25  * package sample.vector;
26  *
27  * public class intVector extends Vector {
28  * pubilc void add(int value) {
29  * addElement(new Integer(value));
30  * }
31  *
32  * public int at(int index) {
33  * return elementAt(index).intValue();
34  * }
35  * }
36  * </pre></ul>
37  *
38  * <p><code>VectorAssistant.assist()</code> uses
39  * <code>sample.vector.Sample</code> and <code>sample.vector.Sample2</code>
40  * as a template to produce the methods <code>add()</code> and
41  * <code>at()</code>.
