tool to move declaration @Nullable annotations to the right spot for type-use annotations?

[Manu Sridharan]

Hi, I was working on migrating the NullAway source code itself to JSpecify 1.0.0 annotations from JSR 305 and was wondering if there is any tooling to help with this:

Optionally, move other annotations to comply with style guidelines, but this is not required by the language.

We have many JSR-305 @Nullable annotations written as declaration annotations before modifiers and I’d like to move them to be next to the type once we switch to JSpecify.  Is there any tooling out there to help with this?  Thanks!

Best,

Manu

There's an Error Prone check that will move annotations to the right position [1], which can be run as a refactoring [2].

Thanks!  I opened a PR to mention this option in the docs.

Best,
