Some source files here definitely use Hamcrest, so listing it as a
dependency seems reasonable. What I find confusing is the inconsistency
among my Eclipse installations. On some of my various machines, Eclipse
reports an error if this dependency is not listed. On others, Eclipse
finds the required jar and reports no error, even if this dependency is
not listed. I don't know why the latter works, or why the inconsistency
exists at all. Eclipse is a complex, subtle beast. What I can say is
that this change fixes the error for my Eclipses that were reporting an
error, and does not introduce any new errors for my Eclipses that were
already happy before this change.
We actually know the full grammar for these files: it is documented at
<http://help.eclipse.org/kepler/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.platform.doc.isv%2Freference%2Fmisc%2Fplugin_manifest.html>.
We ought to be able to extract that DTD into a file and give each
"plugin.xml" a "<!DOCTYPE plugin SYSTEM ...>" declaration referencing
it. Unfortunately, that leads to a new warning: "External entity
resolution is not supported by PDE." So a stub declaration is the
best we can do. Fortunately, Eclipse's structured editor seems to
preserve these once we add them by hand.
I think the "target/p2artifacts.xml" and "target/p2content.xml" files
are generated by Maven. They are well-formed XML but Eclipse's XML
validator legitimately warns that they lack grammar constraints.
Since we're not maintaining the tool that creates these files, we are
not in a position to do anything about that. Therefore, we may as
well exclude these from validation entirely. That way we can
more-clearly recognize warnings that we *can* do something about.
Ant "build.xml" files don't have a standard DTD or XML Schema; the
contents are simply too flexible for that. But we can at least
give each a stub DOCTYPE declaration. That's enough to satisfy
Eclipse's XML validator, which otherwise complains that these files
lack grammar constraints.
As created by Tycho Surefire, these files are XML documents without
DTD or XML Schema declarations. The XML validator warns about this
omission. However, Surefire is not a WALA component. We are not in a
suitable position to change it to include XML schema or DTD
declarations in the XML files it generates. Better, then, to ignore
this benign problem so we can focus on warnings that we can act on
directly.
The contents of @author go straight into HTML, just like most other
Javadoc material. So if you want to have a "<foo@bar.com>" e-mail
address as part of the author information, the angle brackets must be
escaped. Here I've opted to do that using "{@code <foo@bar.com>}",
which has some additional styling effects that seem appropriate for
e-mail addresses. We could also have used "<foo@bar.com>" for
escaping without code styling.
Eclipse validation warns about invalid HTML content in all
Maven-generated "target/site/dependency-convergence.html" files. The
warnings are legitimate: these HTML files are indeed invalid.
However, we don't maintain the tool that generates these files, so we
are not in a position to fix them. Better, therefore, to suppress
these warnings so that we can notice and fix other problems over which
we do have control.
In general, the WALA code base is not really ready for nullness
checking. It would be nice if we got there some day, but I'm not
planning to take that on now or any time soon. Until then, it's not
useful to warn about missing @NonNullByDefault declarations on WALA
packages.
See also older commit 7b6811b.
Eclipse Mars Service Release 2 finds 45 potential null pointer accesses
across WALA's various Eclipse projects. Eclipse ignores these by
default, but any individual user may have changed their personal Eclipse
configuration to treat them as warnings or errors. Thus, some people
will find that the code builds while others find that it fails. Better
to explicitly use a known-good configuration.
In the long run someone should inspect these cases one-by-one and fix
them where appropriate. But that is probably better managed as part of a
larger effort to tidy up nulls in WALA. I'm not planning to take that on
now or any time soon, though, so this is a better setup for now.
PrunedCFG had been changed to always include an entry and exit node.
The logic for detecting an "empty" ExceptionPrunedCFG inside the PDG
construction code had not been updated appropriately.
a) serializable added for use by Android services
b) test classes refactored to allow Android variants to use JUnit 3
2) shrike instrumentation now uses java.lang.instrument
a) refactoring
b) online variants of call graph tracing
