All Implemented Interfaces:

CodeClass
```
public class GeneratedCodeClass
extends java.lang.Object
implements CodeClass
```
A CodeClass implementation that is used to generate new classes.
When creating classes, instantiate one of these, add fields and methods. Associate CodeGenerator instances with methods. Then, use GeneratedClassLoader to make a new class.

  - setSourceFile
```
public void setSourceFile(java.lang.String sourceFile)
```
    Set the source file associated with this code class.
    The source file appears in debugging output and stack traces. Use this method to set the source file that this generated class will clame to be from. You can use non-file names e.g. uri:myGenerator:proxy/foo
    
    To un-set the source file, use null.
