ASTVisitor's ImportDeclaration from Package or JAR? [message #1478400]

Helo everyone. I have an ASTVisitor-implementing class with (among others) this method:

@Override
public boolean visit(final ImportDeclaration node) {...}

Is there any way to find out whether the ImportDeclaration is from another package of the project which the ASTVisitor is going through or if it's from a .jar?

I tried node.resolveBinding().isSynthetic(), but it seems never to be synthetic despite me having imports from a library.

PS: I asked this question also on stackoverflow (26998754); if you want to reply there, I will copy the solution here.

isSynthetic indicates that the binding was "made up" by the compiler. To find out whether a binding is from source or not, you should use the isFromSource() API in ITypeBinding

The solution is valid for ITypeBinding. For the on-demand import declaration, the node.resolveBinding() returns the type of IPackageBinding, and IPackageBinding does not have the method isFromSource(). Do you have any solution for IPackageBinding whether it is from source or jars?
