CompoundElement is a preview API of the Java platform.
Programs can only use CompoundElement when preview features are enabled.
Preview features may be removed in a future release, or upgraded to permanent features of the Java platform.
A ClassFileElementPREVIEW that has complex structure defined in terms of other classfile elements, such as a method, field, method body, or entire class. When encountering a CompoundElement, clients have the option to treat the element as a single entity (e.g., an entire method) or to traverse the contents of that element with the methods in this class (e.g., forEach(Consumer), etc.)
