Checking support for “simple names” in import declarations

[Markus Elfring <Ma...@web.de>]

Hello,

Information (like the following) is published.

The Java® Language Specification
Java SE 18 Edition

Section “Single-Type-Import Declarations”:
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se18/html/jls-7.html#jls-7.5.1

“…
A single-type-import declaration imports a single class or interface by giving its canonical name, making it available under a simple name in the module, class, and interface declarations of the compilation unit in which the single-type-import declaration appears.
…”


Section “Fully Qualified Names and Canonical Names”:
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se18/html/jls-6.html#jls-6.7

“…
The fully qualified name of a named package that is not a subpackage of a named package is its simple name.
…”



In which directory may the corresponding source file (for which the mentioned “simple name” was selected) be stored?

Do you find a storage location like “<project_root>/src/<simple_name>” usable for an evolving Java package in available development environments?


Regards,
Markus
