BasicAnnotatedTypeFactory<Checker extends BaseTypeChecker> A factory that extends AnnotatedTypeFactory to optionally use flow-sensitive qualifier inference, qualifier polymorphism, implicit annotations via ImplicitFor, and user-specified defaults via DefaultQualifier
QualifierHierarchy Represents a type qualifier hierarchy.
TreeAnnotator Adds annotations to a type based on the contents of a tree.
TypeAnnotator Adds annotations to a type based on the contents of a type.
TypeFromElement A utility class used to extract the annotations from an element and inserts them into the elements type.
