Bumps checker-qual from 3.6.0 to 3.12.0.

Release notes

Sourced from checker-qual's releases.

Checker Framework 3.12.0

Version 3.12.0, April 1, 2021

User-visible changes:

New FAQ item "How should I annotate code that uses generics?" gives examples of annotations on type variables, together with their meaning.

-Ainfer=ajava uses ajava files (rather than jaif files or stub files) internally during whole-program inference.

The Optional Checker supports a new annotation @OptionalBottom that stands for (only) the null value.

The value element/argument to @EnumVal is now required. Previously it defaulted to an empty array.

Implementation details:

A precondition or normal postcondition annotation's value element must have type String[], not String. A conditinoal postcondition annotation's expression element must have type String[], not String. These changes will not affect users (any programmer-written annotation that was legal before will still be legal), but it may affect checker implementations.

JavaExpressionParseUtil: JavaExpressionParseUtil#parse no longer viewpoint-adapts Java expressions. It just converts the expression String to a JavaExpression. To that end, JavaExpressionParseUtil.JavaExpressionContext has been removed and JavaExpressionParseUtil#parse no longer takes a context object. Most calls to JavaExpressionParseUtil#parse should be replaced with a call to one of the methods in StringToJavaExpressions.

Renamed AnnotatedTypeComparer to DoubleAnnotatedTypeScanner. In the new class, the method compare was renamed defaultAction. The method combineRs was replaced by reduce.

Removed methods:

• AnnotationUtils.getElementValueArrayOrSingleton
• DependentTypesHelper.standardizeNewClassTree: use atExpression instead
• DependentTypesHelper.standardizeString: override one of the methods explained in the Javadoc of convertAnnotationMirror

Method renamings:

• DefaultQualifierForUseTypeAnnotator.getSupportAnnosFromDefaultQualifierForUses => getDefaultQualifierForUses
• In DependentTypesHelper:
  • check* => check*ForErrorExpressions
  • viewpointAdaptConstructor => atConstructorInvocation
  • viewpointAdaptMethod => atMethodInvocation
  • viewpointAdaptTypeVariableBounds => atParameterizedTypeUse
  • standardizeClass => atTypeDecl
  • standardizeExpression => atExpression
  • standardizeFieldAccess => atFieldAccess
  • standardizeReturnType => atReturnType
  • standardizeVariable => atVariableDeclaration

Deprecated some overloads in AnnotationUtils that take a CharSequence (use an overload that takes an ExecutablElement):

• getElementValueArray
• getElementValueClassName
• getElementValueClassNames
• getElementValueEnumArray
• getElementValueEnum
• getElementValue
• getElementValuesWithDefaults

... (truncated)
