Annotation Type SemiStrict


  • @Target({METHOD,TYPE})
    @Retention(RUNTIME)
    public @interface SemiStrict
    Annotation applied to a user-defined function that indicates that the function always returns null if one or more of its arguments are null but also may return null at other times.

    Compare with Strict:

    • A strict function returns null if and only if it has a null argument
    • A semi-strict function returns null if it has a null argument
