Simon Willnauer commented on LUCENE-2188:
-----------------------------------------

Uwe, 
I'm not sure if I have a really good replacement for the your names, none of 
the following suggestions seem to be a 100% match though.

for getOverrideDistance() you could call it:
 * getDefinitionDistanceFrom(Class)
 * getImplementationDistanceFrom(Class)

The term distance is fine IMO, I would rather extend the javadoc a little and 
explain that this is the distance between the given class and the next class 
implementing the method on the path from the given class to the base class 
where the method was initally declared / defined

for isOverriddenBy() you could call it:
 * isDefinedBy()
 * isImplementedBy()

I also wanna mention an option for the class name, "VirtualMethod" pretty much 
matches what this class represents. :)
