/**
 * Indicates that a variable has been interned, i.e., that the variable refers to the canonical
 * representation of an object.
 *
 * 

To specify that all objects of a given type are interned, annotate the class declaration: * *

 *   public @Interned class MyInternedClass { ... }
 * 
* * This is equivalent to annotating every use of MyInternedClass, in a declaration or elsewhere. For * example, enum classes are implicitly so annotated. * * @see org.checkerframework.checker.interning.InterningChecker * @checker_framework.manual #interning-checker Interning Checker */ @Documented @Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME) @Target({ElementType.TYPE_USE, ElementType.TYPE_PARAMETER}) @SubtypeOf(UnknownInterned.class) @QualifierForLiterals({LiteralKind.PRIMITIVE, LiteralKind.STRING}) // everything but NULL @DefaultFor( typeKinds = { TypeKind.BOOLEAN, TypeKind.BYTE, TypeKind.CHAR, TypeKind.DOUBLE, TypeKind.FLOAT, TypeKind.INT, TypeKind.LONG, TypeKind.SHORT }) public @interface Interned {}
