Hi Chris, Sandra,
I added jsr308 jar to the libraries (http://types.cs.washington.edu/jsr308/)
and started annotating the data interfaces (net.sf.mzmine.data.*) using
@Nonnull and @Nullable annotations.
This has no real effect when MZmine is compiled using a standard OpenJDK
compiler, but using the right development tools it may help to pinpoint
problematic spots in the code where NullPointerExceptions might occur.
Also, the added benefit is that it makes it clear for the developers what was
the intention behind the interface methods (can or cannot return null) without
actually reading the implementation... particularly when JavaDoc comments are
missing or out of date.
Please let me know if you have any comments/objections :)
Cheers,
Tomas
