 PresentationElement contextView)

Searches for a classifier with given name (simple or qualified). If such does not exist, creates a classifier with given name. Priorities:

• 1. if qualified name is specified, searching by qualified name
• 2. if context is not null, using context to find nearest Package and searching in it
• 3. Searching in all packages
• 4. Searching for standard data type

Usage:

• getClassifierFor(root, "java::lang::String", Class.class)
• getClassifierFor(javaLangPackage, "String", Class.class)
• getClassifierFor(ioPackage, "Serializable", Interface.class)

Parameters:

context - element used to find nearest Package and use it as root

name - name of classifier. If classifier contains "::" then assuming that name is qualified

createType - a classifier type to create if not found (for example Class.class or Interface.class)

searchType - a collection of classifier types to search for (for example Class.class or Interface.class)

simpleNameResolver - simple name resolver

contextView - context view

createIfNotFound - should new classifier be created if existing is not found
