Report why a @SideEffectsOnly annotation was ignored at a call site - #8010
Conversation
After a call to a method annotated @SideEffectsOnly, discard only what the annotation's expressions could have changed, rather than every refinement. A checker discards what it knows about an expression `e` if `e` contains a listed expression, and also if `e` contains a call through whose receiver or arguments a listed expression is reachable: a @pure method's result depends on state that no annotation declares, so approximate that state by what is reachable from the call's receiver and arguments. If a listed expression cannot be represented at the call site -- because viewpoint adaptation yields an Unknown, or because it cannot be parsed -- then return null, which makes the caller discard every refinement. Omitting the expression instead would treat the method as side-effecting less than it was declared to. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
@SideEffectsOnly is not inherited as an annotation, because its `value` element is significant, unlike that of the other inherited declaration annotations. A method that overrides methods in two supertypes inherits the union of what they permit it to side-effect, rather than the "first one wins" rule of `addOrMerge`. Each expression is remembered along with the method that declares it, because the expression is parsed in that method's scope: an expression that names a field of the superclass might name a different field, or none at all, in the subclass. A @SideEffectsOnly written on the overriding method itself is authoritative, so in that case nothing is inherited. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Report a parse error at the call site rather than at the callee's declaration, because the callee may be declared in a compilation unit that is not currently being compiled. Report each such error once rather than once per dataflow iteration. Warn when viewpoint adaptation makes only some of an annotation's expressions unrepresentable at a call site, so that the annotation is silently ignored even though it was partly usable. Neither diagnostic changes what is refined: an expression that cannot be represented already made the analysis discard every refinement. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
