Annotation Type LeakedToResult
-
@Documented @Retention(RUNTIME) @Target(TYPE_USE) @SubtypeOf(NonLeaked.class) public @interface LeakedToResult
This annotation is used on a formal parameter to indicate that the parameter may be returned, but it is not otherwise leaked. (A parameter is leaked if it is stored in a field where it could be accessed later, and in that case this annotation would not apply.)For example, the receiver parameter of
StringBuffer.append(String s)
is annotated as@LeakedToResult
, because the method returns the updated receiver.This annotation is currently trusted, not checked.
