Description
Hi, I'm developing an extension and looking to include the feature of:
- scan all .java files in the project folder and return back the filenames of all internal classes that either implement interface X OR descent from a class implementing interface X.
Are there APIs or functionalities included in vscode-java that could accomplish this task? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Environment
- Operating System: OSX
- JDK version: 11
- Visual Studio Code version: 1.48.2

Research direction
The request concerns vscode-java APIs used by an extension to scan project .java files for classes implementing or descending from an interface. No implementation file, entry point, or test is named; first determine whether the existing extension APIs expose source-tree inheritance queries, and define completion as returning the matching internal class filenames.
