The crash is in Utils.qualifyFieldName (Utils.java, around line 56), reached from RefinementTypeChecker.visitCtFieldRead (line 325) when a CtFieldReference has a null declaring type. Start by running the four-line Repro class from the issue against the verifier and checking how the null case is handled for other field reads. Done means the reproducer prints the 'Passed Verification' result with the compilation warning instead of throwing, and the unresolved-type case is covered by a test.

Description

bug

Impact: verification stops with an internal error: 5 of the 53 real-world files below.

Description

Reading a field whose declaring type is unknown (an enum constant in a case label, a field generated by Lombok such as log, an array's .length on a value of an unresolved type): CtFieldReference.getDeclaringType() is null and Utils.qualifyFieldName calls getQualifiedName() on it.

Minimal reproducer (org.example.missing is not on the classpath)

import org.example.missing.Mode;

public class Repro {
    static int weight(Mode mode) {
        switch (mode) {
            case STATEFUL:
                return 2;
            default:
                return 1;
        }
    }
}

Expected

Correct! Passed Verification. (with the "Java compilation encountered issues" warning).

Context

Found while running LiquidJava on the original repository files of 53 real-world typestate and refinement bugs (the same files as our study exercises, before simplification). Each file is verified on its own, as a user would on one file of a project, so the project's other classes and its dependencies are not on the classpath. On main this crash and the two related ones (#388 binary operator, #389 unary operator, #390 field read) stop verification in 33 of the 53 files.
