Field Detail

expression

public final String expression

The expression for which the condition must hold, such as "foo" in @RequiresNonNull("foo").

An annotation like @RequiresNonNull({"a", "b", "c"}) would be represented by multiple Contracts.

annotation

public final AnnotationMirror annotation

The annotation on the type of expression, according to this contract.

contractAnnotation

public final AnnotationMirror contractAnnotation

The annotation that expressed this contract; used for diagnostic messages.

kind

public final Contract.Kind kind

The kind of contract: precondition, postcondition, or conditional postcondition.

Constructor Detail

Contract

protected Contract(Contract.Kind kind,
                   String expression,
                   AnnotationMirror annotation,
                   AnnotationMirror contractAnnotation)

Creates a new Contract.

Parameters:

kind - precondition, postcondition, or conditional postcondition

expression - the Java expression that should have a type qualifier

annotation - the type qualifier that expression should have

contractAnnotation - the pre- or post-condition annotation that the programmer wrote; used for diagnostic messages

Method Detail

create

public static Contract create(Contract.Kind kind,
                              String expression,
                              AnnotationMirror annotation,
                              AnnotationMirror contractAnnotation,
                              Boolean ensuresQualifierIf)

Creates a new Contract.

Parameters:

kind - precondition, postcondition, or conditional postcondition

expression - the Java expression that should have a type qualifier

annotation - the type qualifier that expression should have

contractAnnotation - the pre- or post-condition annotation that the programmer wrote; used for diagnostic messages

ensuresQualifierIf - the ensuresQualifierIf field, for a conditional postcondition

Returns:

a new contract
