// TODO: In a fix for https://tinyurl.com/cfissue/1917, add the text:  Every prefix expression must
// also be non-null; for example, {@code @RequiresNonNull(expression="a.b.c")} implies that both
// {@code a.b} and {@code a.b.c} must be non-null.
/**
 * Indicates a method precondition: the method expects the specified expressions to be non-null when
 * the annotated method is invoked.
 *
 * For example:
 * 
 *
 * 
 * import org.checkerframework.checker.nullness.qual.RequiresNonNull;
 * import org.checkerframework.checker.nullness.qual.NonNull;
 * import org.checkerframework.checker.nullness.qual.Nullable;
 *
 * class MyClass {
 *   @Nullable Object field1;
 *   @Nullable Object field2;
 *
 *   @RequiresNonNull({"field1", "#1.field1"})
 *   void method1(@NonNull MyClass other) {
 *     field1.toString();           // OK, this.field1 is known to be non-null
 *     field2.toString();           // error, might throw NullPointerException
 *     other.field1.toString();     // OK, other.field1 is known to be non-null
 *     other.field2.toString();     // error, might throw NullPointerException
 *   }
 *
 *   void method2() {
 *     MyClass other = new MyClass();
 *
 *     field1 = new Object();
 *     other.field1 = new Object();
 *     method1(other);                   // OK, satisfies method precondition
 *
 *     field1 = null;
 *     other.field1 = new Object();
 *     method1(other);                   // error, does not satisfy this.field1 method precondition
 *
 *     field1 = new Object();
 *     other.field1 = null;
 *     method1(other);                   // error, does not satisfy other.field1 method precondition
 *   }
 * }
 * 
 *
 * Do not use this annotation for formal parameters (instead, give them a {@code @NonNull} type,
 * which is the default and need not be written). The {@code @RequiresNonNull} annotation is
 * intended for non-parameter, such as field accesses or method calls.
