recordNullReference

protected void recordNullReference(LocalVariableBinding local,

                                   int checkType)

Record a null reference for use by deferred checks. Only looping or finally contexts really record that information. Other contexts immediately check for unboxing.

Parameters:

local - the local variable involved in the check

location - the location triggering the analysis, for normal null dereference this is an expression resolving to 'local', for resource leaks it is an early exit statement.

checkType - the checkType against which the check must be performed; one of CAN_ONLY_NULL, CAN_ONLY_NULL_NON_NULL, MAY_NULL, CAN_ONLY_NON_NULL, potentially combined with a context indicator (one of IN_COMPARISON_NULL, IN_COMPARISON_NON_NULL, IN_ASSIGNMENT or IN_INSTANCEOF).
Alternatively, a IN_UNBOXING check can e requested.

recordUnboxing

public void recordUnboxing(Scope scope,
                           Expression expression,
                           int nullStatus,
                           FlowInfo flowInfo)

Either AST analysis or checking of a child flow context has encountered an unboxing situation. Record this fact for handling at an appropriate point in time.

Parameters:

nullStatus - the status as we know it so far.

checkUnboxing

protected void checkUnboxing(Scope scope,
                             Expression expression,
                             FlowInfo flowInfo)

During deferred checking re-visit a previously recording unboxing situation.

recordReturnFrom

public void recordReturnFrom(UnconditionalFlowInfo flowInfo)

recordSettingFinal

public void recordSettingFinal(VariableBinding variable,
                               Reference finalReference,
                               FlowInfo flowInfo)

recordUsingNullReference

public void recordUsingNullReference(Scope scope,
                                     LocalVariableBinding local,
                                     ASTNode location,
                                     int checkType,
                                     FlowInfo flowInfo)

Record a null reference for use by deferred checks. Only looping or finally contexts really record that information. The context may emit an error immediately depending on the status of local against flowInfo and its nature (only looping of finally contexts defer part of the checks; nonetheless, contexts that are nested into a looping or a finally context get affected and delegate some checks to their enclosing context).

Parameters:

scope - the scope into which the check is performed

local - the local variable involved in the check

location - the location triggering the analysis, for normal null dereference this is an expression resolving to 'local', for resource leaks it is an early exit statement.

checkType - the status against which the check must be performed; one of CAN_ONLY_NULL, CAN_ONLY_NULL_NON_NULL, MAY_NULL, potentially combined with a context indicator (one of IN_COMPARISON_NULL, IN_COMPARISON_NON_NULL, IN_ASSIGNMENT or IN_INSTANCEOF) and a bit to indicate whether the reference is being recorded inside an assert, HIDE_NULL_COMPARISON_WARNING

flowInfo - the flow info at the check point; deferring contexts will perform supplementary checks against flow info instances that cannot be known at the time of calling this method (they are influenced by code that follows the current point)
