Resolving one type name looks up many candidate names -- one per enclosing type declaration, one per import, one per on-demand import, one in the same package, one in `java.lang`, and one for the name as a fully-qualified name. Most of those names name no type, and a client that resolves many names looks up the same names over and over. Add an overload of `resolveTypeName` that takes a cache, and route every lookup through it, so that a client that resolves many names pays for each distinct name only once. The cache records a lookup that finds no type, which is the common case. The existing one-argument overload is unchanged from a caller's point of view; it allocates a cache that lives for the one call. This is a performance change; it does not change any result. A cache must not be reused across annotation processing rounds or across `Elements` instances, because a name that names no type in one round might name a generated type in a later round; the Javadoc says so.

To avoid cluttering an ajava file, whole-program inference does not print the invisible qualifiers. It suppressed them by overriding the pretty-printer's three `visit(...AnnotationExpr)` methods to return without printing. By the time the pretty-printer visits an annotation, it has already printed the whitespace that separates the annotation from what follows it, so each suppressed annotation leaves a stray space or blank line: `java.util. Date`, `static double`, `String [] []`. That partly defeats the purpose of not printing the annotation, which is to reduce clutter. Instead, remove the annotations that should not be printed from a clone of the compilation unit, and print that. The pretty-printer then outputs no separator for them. The clone is necessary because the removal is a side effect, and the AST is printed once per checker that was run. No test output changes: the test checkers declare no invisible qualifier, so nothing is removed in the test suite. This refactoring is worthwhile on its own for the stray whitespace it fixes for a checker that does declare one, and it is a prerequisite for omitting irrelevant annotations, which would otherwise leave the same stray whitespace on every annotation it omits.

When a checker declares `@RelevantJavaTypes`, whole-program inference could write, into an `.ajava` file, an annotation on a Java type that the checker treats as irrelevant. Such an annotation is clutter: omitting it does not change the result of type-checking. Omit such an annotation when writing the `.ajava` file. The test is conservative: it discards an annotation only when the annotation is definitely irrelevant where it appears. Relevance constrains the Java types on which a qualifier may be *written*, so it says nothing about a declaration annotation, even one that is also a type qualifier. JavaParser attaches an annotation that precedes a declaration's type to the declaration rather than to the type, so the two cases cannot be told apart from the AST alone. Mark each annotation that inference adds as a declaration annotation with a JavaParser `DataKey`, and always retain it. Update the `ainfer-relevance` goal files and the test inputs' comments, which previously recorded the old behavior. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
`JavaParserUtil.resolveTypeName` did not model the scope of a local class or of an anonymous class, so a name that such a class declares or inherits resolved to a same-named type that is declared outside it. If that type is irrelevant, inference silently discarded a correct annotation. `TypeDeclaration.getFullyQualifiedName()` is part of the problem: for a local class `Foo` in `Outer`, it returns "Outer.Foo", which `Elements` resolves to a member type of `Outer`. Model these scopes: * A local class shadows every type of the same name, and `Elements` cannot look up a local class, so return null (that is, be conservative). * Likewise for a member type of a class that `Elements` cannot look up: a local class, an anonymous class (including the body of an enum constant), or a class nested within one. * Such a class also inherits its supertype's member types. Resolve the supertype and search it, which is precise rather than conservative. The supertype names are excluded from the class's own body scope, both because that is the Java rule and because it bounds the recursion. Add `nameableFullyQualifiedName`, which returns a fully-qualified name only when `Elements` can look it up, in place of `TypeDeclaration.getFullyQualifiedName()`. Resolving a supertype's name multiplies the number of name lookups, so pass a single cache from the ajava writer to every call, rather than letting each call allocate one that it discards. Add tests for a local class, an anonymous class, an enum constant's body, and a member type inherited into a local or anonymous class. Each test loses an annotation if its part of this fix is reverted. `InheritedTypeShadows` also shows that the supertype search is precise: an annotation on an inherited member type that is irrelevant is still omitted.

… in scope A class's member types, declared and inherited, are in scope only in its body -- not in its annotations, its type parameter section, or its supertype names, and not in the arguments of the object creation expression that declares an anonymous class. Test the child of the enclosing declaration that contains the name, rather than testing only whether the name is the supertype name. Also include the implicit superclass `java.lang.Enum` in an enum's supertypes, because it declares the member type `Enum.EnumDesc`. Add tests for a name in an anonymous class's arguments and for a member type that an unnameable enum inherits. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
`resolveMemberType` returned any non-private member type that it found in a supertype. A package-private member type is inherited only within its own package, so a package-private member type of a supertype in a different package was wrongly returned. Also, a declaration hides what its declaring type would otherwise inherit even when the declaration itself is not inherited, so the search must not continue past it into that type's supertypes. Either error made `annotationIsRelevant` ask about the wrong type, which could discard a relevant annotation. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Every other `ainfer*Generate*` task deletes the WPI output directory with `wpiOutputDirectory()` and `DirectoryDeleter`. This task still inlined an equivalent loop, which the merge of the commit that introduced those helpers left behind. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…e-variable-upper-bound
A use of a type variable is relevant exactly when the type variable's upper bound is relevant, so resolve such a use to its bound rather than conservatively retaining every annotation that is written on it. `JavaParserUtil.resolveTypeVariableName` answers which type variable a name refers to. It shares its scope walk with `resolveTypeName`, so the two agree about which declaration a name refers to. That walk now searches a type declaration's declared member types before its type parameters, because a declared member type shadows a type parameter of the same name -- whereas a member type that the declaration merely inherits does not.

When the checker supports no invisible qualifier, `removeUnprintedAnnotations` has no effect, so skip both it and the clone that it requires. Also, walk the AST rather than building a list of every node in it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Fix the `anno.on.irrelevant` warning in `IrrelevantTypeVariable.java` with `@SuppressWarnings`, the idiom that the other tests in this directory use, rather than by deleting the file from the validation pass in `build.gradle`. The test now runs in both passes. `resolveName` no longer returns a TypeParameter for a name with more than one component, such as `T.Inner`: a type variable has no member types, so such a name names nothing. This moves the check from the caller into the resolver. Make `ResolvedName` and `resolveName` public, so that a client that needs to know both whether a name names a type and whether it names a type variable can resolve it once. `WholeProgramInferenceJavaParserStorage.typeToTypeMirror` walked the enclosing scopes twice for every such name. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…vance-type-variable-upper-bound
`WholeProgramInferenceJavaParserStorage` had its own `typeToTypeMirror`, which differed from `JavaParserUtil.typeToTypeMirror` only in that a use of a type variable yields the type variable's effective upper bound. Merge the two: `JavaParserUtil.typeToTypeMirror` now resolves a name with `resolveName` and returns the upper bound for a type variable. Also move the helper method `typeVariableUpperBound`. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…vance-type-variable-upper-bound
`typeToTypeMirror` again returns null for a use of a type variable; the new `typeToTypeMirrorOrUpperBound` substitutes the upper bound, which is sound only for a client that erases the result. Reduce the visibility of `ResolvedName`, `resolveName`, and `typeVariableUpperBound`, and delete the unused `resolveTypeVariableName`.

A use of a type variable is relevant exactly when the type variable's upper bound is relevant, so resolve such a use to its bound rather than conservatively retaining every annotation written on it.
JavaParserUtil.typeToTypeMirrorkeeps its contract of returning theTypeMirrorfor the type it is given, or null. The substitution of the upper bound, which is sound only for a client that erases the result, is done byJavaParserUtil.typeToTypeMirrorOrUpperBound, whichWholeProgramInferenceJavaParserStoragecalls.JavaParserUtil.resolveNameanswers both which type and which type variable a name refers to, in one scope walk, so the two answers agree about which declaration a name refers to;resolveTypeNameis implemented in terms of it. That walk searches a type declaration's declared member types before its type parameters, because a declared member type shadows a type parameter of the same name -- whereas a member type that the declaration merely inherits does not. The search usesresolveMemberType, which resolves the components of a qualified name one at a time and searches each one's supertypes, so that a name likePrivate.Inheritedresolves whenInheritedis inherited rather than declared.The new test writes
@SuppressWarnings("anno.on.irrelevant")where inference's annotations are irrelevant, so that both passes of the test accept the file.Continues the work of #8189, which was closed when its branch in this repository was deleted.
