checker-qual-android contains annotations (type qualifiers) that a programmer writes to specify Java code for type-checking by the Checker Framework. The checker-qual-android artifact is identical to the checker-qual artifact, except that in checker-qual-android annotations have classfile retention. The default Android Gradle plugin retains types annotated with runtime annotations in the main dex, but strips out class-retention annotations.

There is a newer version: 3.49.1-eisop1

/**
 * This type qualifier belongs to the freedom-before-commitment initialization tracking type-system.
 * This type-system is not used on its own, but in conjunction with some other type-system that
 * wants to ensure safe initialization. For instance, {@link
 * org.checkerframework.checker.nullness.NullnessChecker} uses freedom-before-commitment to track
 * initialization of {@link NonNull} fields.
 *
 * This type qualifier indicates that the object has been fully initialized; reading fields from
 * such objects is fully safe and yields objects of the correct type.
