[dependabot]

Bumps com.google.errorprone:error_prone_core from 2.42.0 to 2.46.0.

Release notes

Sourced from com.google.errorprone:error_prone_core's releases.

Error Prone 2.46.0

Changes:

• The javac flag -XDaddTypeAnnotationsToSymbol=true is now required for Error Prone invocations on JDK 21, to enable the javac fix for JDK-8225377: type annotations are not visible to javac plugins across compilation boundaries. See google/error-prone#5426 for details.
• Remove deprecated value attribute from @IncompatibleModifiers and @RequiredModifiers (google/error-prone#2122)
• Error Prone API changes to encapsulate references to internal javac APIs for end position handling (EndPosTable, DiagnosticPosition) (google/error-prone@5440bb4, google/error-prone@06c2905, google/error-prone@f3915ec)

New checks:

• DuplicateAssertion: detect duplicated assertion lines where the argument to assertThat is pure
• IfChainToSwitch: suggest converting chains of if-statements into arrow switches
• ScannerUseDelimiter: discourage Scanner.useDelimiter("\\A")
• AddNullMarkedToClass: refactoring to add @NullMarked annotation to top level classes

Error Prone 2.45.0

Changes:

• Improved compatibility with latest JDK 26 EA builds.

New checks:

• AssertSameIncompatible: Detect calls to assertSame and similar assertions, where the calls are guaranteed to either succeed or fail.
• FormatStringShouldUsePlaceholders: Suggests using a format string instead of string concatenation operations on format methods

Closed issues: #5335

Full changelog: google/error-prone@v2.44.0...v2.45.0

Error Prone 2.44.0

Full changelog: google/error-prone@v2.43.0...v2.44.0

Error Prone 2.43.0

The minimum supported JDK version to run Error Prone is now JDK 21 (google/error-prone#4867).

Changes:

• -XepPatchChecks now skips disabled checks (#4943)
• AndroidJdkLibsChecker has been removed, the recommended replacement for Android code is Android Lint's NewApi check

New checks:

• NullNeedsCastForVarargs: Detect calls that incorrectly passes a null array instead of a null element.
• RedundantNullCheck: detect checks on expressions that are non-null.

Hi @dependabot[bot]. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a eclipse-che member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work. Regular contributors should join the org to skip this step.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.
