Annotation Type GuardSatisfied
-
@Documented @Retention(RUNTIME) @Target(TYPE_USE) @TargetLocations({RECEIVER,PARAMETER,RETURN,FIELD,LOCAL_VARIABLE,CONSTRUCTOR_RESULT}) @SubtypeOf(GuardedByUnknown.class) public @interface GuardSatisfied
If a variablex
has type@GuardSatisfied
, then all lock expressions forx
's value are held.Written on a formal parameter (including the receiver), this annotation indicates that the @
GuardedBy
type for the corresponding actual argument at the method call site is unknown at the method definition site, but any lock expressions that guard it are known to be held prior to the method call.For example, the formal parameter of the String copy constructor,
String(String s)
, is annotated with@GuardSatisfied
. This requires that all locks guarding the actual argument are held when the constructor is called. However, the definition of the constructor does not need to know what those locks are (and it cannot know, because the constructor can be called by arbitrary code).- See Also:

value
int value
The index on the GuardSatisfied polymorphic qualifier, if any. Defaults to -1 so that, if the user writes 0, that is different than writing no index. Writing no index is the usual case.- Returns:
- the index on the GuardSatisfied polymorphic qualifier, or -1 if none
- Default:
- -1
