We are migrating Guava to use these annotations rather than jsr305's
@Nullable. We can't use the Checker Framework's _@Nullable_ yet because
we promise compatibility with Java 7, which doesn't support type
annotations. This is related to but distinct from
https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-21408, which is about a
different jsr305 annotation we use, @ParametersAreNonnullByDefault.
I've also updated some docs to mention Kotlin's existing support for the
Checker Framework _@NonNull_.
- tests and declarations for checkerframework has been moved,
because they only Java 8 targeted
- tests for eclipse annotations has been just copied,
because there are two jars: one for Java 8 and other for earlier versions
Java nullability annotations may generate types that currently are not denotable in Kotlin:
class Java {
void <F> foo(@NotNull F f) {}
}
Type of given value parameter should be not nullable under any substitution:
String/String?/String! because of annotation contract.
NB: Currently there is no full analogues for such types in pure kotlin
