- Method Detail
  - replaceTypeElementIfNecessary
```
protected TypeElement replaceTypeElementIfNecessary(TypeElement element)
```
    When running during Eclipse Incremental Compilation, we might get a TypeElement that has an UnresolvedTypeBinding and which is not automatically resolved. In that case, getEnclosedElements returns an empty list. We take that as a hint to check if the TypeElement resolved by FQN might have any enclosed elements and, if so, return the resolved element.
    
    Specified by:
    
    replaceTypeElementIfNecessary in class AbstractElementUtilsDecorator
    
    Parameters:
    
    element - the original element
    
    Returns:
    
    the element freshly resolved using the qualified name, if the original element did not return any enclosed elements, whereas the resolved element does return enclosed elements.
