Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
AnnotationMirror	greatestLowerBoundQualifiers(AnnotationMirror a1, AnnotationMirror a2)	Returns the greatest lower bound for the qualifiers qualifier1 and qualifier2.
boolean	isSubtypeQualifiers(AnnotationMirror subAnno, AnnotationMirror superAnno)	Returns true if subQualifier is equal to or a sub-qualifier of superQualifier, according to the type qualifier hierarchy, ignoring Java basetypes.
AnnotationMirror	leastUpperBoundQualifiers(AnnotationMirror a1, AnnotationMirror a2)	Determines the least upper bound of a1 and a2.
int	numberOfIterationsBeforeWidening()	Returns the number of iterations dataflow should perform before QualifierHierarchy.widenedUpperBound(AnnotationMirror, AnnotationMirror) is called or -1 if it should never be called.
AnnotationMirror	widenedUpperBound(AnnotationMirror newQualifier, AnnotationMirror previousQualifier)	If the qualifier hierarchy has an infinite ascending chain, then the dataflow analysis might never reach a fixed point.

Method Details

greatestLowerBoundQualifiers

public AnnotationMirror greatestLowerBoundQualifiers(AnnotationMirror a1,
 AnnotationMirror a2)

Description copied from class: QualifierHierarchy

Returns the greatest lower bound for the qualifiers qualifier1 and qualifier2. Returns null if the qualifiers are not from the same qualifier hierarchy.

Specified by:

greatestLowerBoundQualifiers in class QualifierHierarchy

Parameters:

a1 - first qualifier

a2 - second qualifier

Returns:

greatest lower bound of the two annotations, or null if the two annotations are not from the same hierarchy

leastUpperBoundQualifiers

public AnnotationMirror leastUpperBoundQualifiers(AnnotationMirror a1,
 AnnotationMirror a2)

Determines the least upper bound of a1 and a2. If a1 and a2 are both the same type of Value annotation, then the LUB is the result of taking the intersection of values from both a1 and a2.

Specified by:

leastUpperBoundQualifiers in class QualifierHierarchy

Parameters:

a1 - the first qualifier; may not be in the same hierarchy as qualifier2

a2 - the second qualifier; may not be in the same hierarchy as qualifier1

Returns:

the least upper bound of a1 and a2

widenedUpperBound

public AnnotationMirror widenedUpperBound(AnnotationMirror newQualifier,
 AnnotationMirror previousQualifier)

Description copied from class: QualifierHierarchy

If the qualifier hierarchy has an infinite ascending chain, then the dataflow analysis might never reach a fixed point. To prevent this, implement this method such that it returns an upper bound for the two qualifiers that is a strict super type of the least upper bound. If this method is implemented, also override QualifierHierarchy.numberOfIterationsBeforeWidening() to return a positive number.

newQualifier is newest qualifier dataflow computed for some expression and previousQualifier is the qualifier dataflow computed on the last iteration.

If the qualifier hierarchy has no infinite ascending chain, returns the least upper bound of the two annotations.

Overrides:

widenedUpperBound in class QualifierHierarchy

Parameters:

newQualifier - new qualifier dataflow computed for some expression; must be in the same hierarchy as previousQualifier

previousQualifier - the previous qualifier dataflow computed on the last iteration; must be in the same hierarchy as previousQualifier

Returns:

an upper bound that is higher than the least upper bound of newQualifier and previousQualifier (or the lub if the qualifier hierarchy does not require this)

numberOfIterationsBeforeWidening

public int numberOfIterationsBeforeWidening()

Description copied from class: QualifierHierarchy

Returns the number of iterations dataflow should perform before QualifierHierarchy.widenedUpperBound(AnnotationMirror, AnnotationMirror) is called or -1 if it should never be called.

Overrides:

numberOfIterationsBeforeWidening in class QualifierHierarchy

Returns:

the number of iterations dataflow should perform before QualifierHierarchy.widenedUpperBound(AnnotationMirror, AnnotationMirror) is called or -1 if it should never be called.

isSubtypeQualifiers

public boolean isSubtypeQualifiers(AnnotationMirror subAnno,
 AnnotationMirror superAnno)

Returns true if subQualifier is equal to or a sub-qualifier of superQualifier, according to the type qualifier hierarchy, ignoring Java basetypes.

Clients should generally call QualifierHierarchy.isSubtypeShallow(javax.lang.model.element.AnnotationMirror, javax.lang.model.type.TypeMirror, javax.lang.model.element.AnnotationMirror, javax.lang.model.type.TypeMirror). However, subtypes should generally override this method (if needed).

This method behaves the same as QualifierHierarchy.isSubtypeQualifiersOnly(AnnotationMirror, AnnotationMirror), which calls this method. This method is for clients inside the framework, and it has protected access to prevent use by clients outside the framework. This makes it easy to find places where code outside the framework is ignoring Java basetypes -- at calls to QualifierHierarchy.isSubtypeQualifiersOnly(javax.lang.model.element.AnnotationMirror, javax.lang.model.element.AnnotationMirror).

Computes subtyping as per the subtyping in the qualifier hierarchy structure unless both annotations have the same class. In this case, rhs is a subtype of lhs iff rhs contains every element of lhs.

Specified by:

isSubtypeQualifiers in class QualifierHierarchy

Parameters:

subAnno - possible subqualifier

superAnno - possible superqualifier

Returns:

true iff subQualifier is a subqualifier of, or equal to, superQualifier
