     * <p>
     * The base name is used to compute the variable name.
     * Some different kinds of base names are possible and each kind is associated to a different heuristic to compute variable names.<br>
     * The heuristic depends also on the kind of the variable. Each kind of variable is identified by a constant starting with <code>VK_</code>.<br>
     * When a prefix and a suffix can be added then all combinations of prefix and suffix are suggested.
     * If the name is <code>name</code>, the prefix is <code>pre</code> and the suffix is <code>suf</code> then the suggested names will be
     * <code>prenamesuf</code>, <code>prename</code>, <code>namesuf</code> and <code>name</code>.<br>
     * <br>
     * The different kinds of base names are:
     * <ul>
     * <li>{@link #BK_NAME}: the base name is a Java name and the whole base name is considered to compute the variable names. A prefix and a suffix can be added.<br>
     * There is a heuristic by variable kind.
     * <ul>
     * <li>{@link #VK_PARAMETER}, {@link #VK_LOCAL}, {@link #VK_INSTANCE_FIELD} and {@link #VK_STATIC_FIELD}:<br>
     * In this case the first word will be converted to lower case and the other characters won't be changed.<br>
     * If the base name is <code>SimpleName</code> then the suggested name will be <code>simpleName</code>.<br></li>
     * <li>{@link #VK_STATIC_FINAL_FIELD} :<br>
     * In this case all letters of the name will be converted to upper case and words will be separated by an underscore (<code>"_"</code>).<br>
     * If the base name is <code>SimpleName</code> then the suggested name will be <code>SIMPLE_NAME</code>.</li>
     * </ul></li>
     * <li>{@link #BK_TYPE_NAME}: the base name is a Java simple type name (e.g. <code>HashMap</code>) and all the words of the base name are considered to compute the variable names. A prefix and a suffix can be added to these names.<br>
     * There is a heuristic by variable kind.
     * <ul>
     * <li>{@link #VK_PARAMETER}, {@link #VK_LOCAL}, {@link #VK_INSTANCE_FIELD} and {@link #VK_STATIC_FIELD}:<br>
     * In this case a variable name will contain some words of the base name and the first word will be converted to lower case.<br>
     * If the type is <code>TypeName</code> then the suggested names will be <code>typeName</code> and <code>name</code>.</li>
     * <li>{@link #VK_STATIC_FINAL_FIELD} :<br>
     * In this case a variable name will contain some words of the base name, all letters of the name will be converted to upper case and segments will be separated by a underscore (<code>"_"</code>).<br>
     * If the base name is <code>TypeName</code> then the suggested name will be <code>TYPE_NAME</code> and <code>NAME</code>.</li>
     * </ul></li>
     * </ul>
     * Some other kinds could be added in the future.
