There are two methods of that name:
(package-private) static Location buildLoc(List locList);
protected static Location buildLoc(int min, int max);
The former should definitely remain private, since it's
an (unsafe) backend method for the union operator. Just
use LocationTools.union instead.
I presume you're actually talking about the latter. I'd
be quite happy to have this as public API, if it's going to
be useful. The current name isn't terribly good for a publiuc
method, though. How about:
static location makeContigiousLocation(int min, int max);
???
If nobody objects, I'll make this change.
