cannot resolve symbol checkerframework

The "cannot resolve symbol" error typically occurs when the Java compiler cannot find a referenced symbol or identifier. In the case of "checkerframework," it suggests that the required dependency or library is missing in your project's configuration.

To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:

1. Verify that you have correctly added the Checker Framework as a dependency in your project. You can do this by checking your project's build file (e.g., pom.xml for Maven projects or build.gradle for Gradle projects) and ensuring that the Checker Framework is declared as a dependency.

For Maven:

   <dependency>
       <groupId>org.checkerframework</groupId>
       <artifactId>checker</artifactId>
       <version>{checker-framework-version}</version>
   </dependency>

For Gradle:

   dependencies {
       implementation 'org.checkerframework:checker:{checker-framework-version}'
   }

Replace `{checker-framework-version}` with the desired version of the Checker Framework.

2. If you have already added the dependency, try refreshing or rebuilding your project to ensure that the build tool fetches the required dependencies.

3. If you are using an Integrated Development Environment (IDE), such as IntelliJ IDEA or Eclipse, try restarting the IDE. Sometimes, IDEs may encounter caching issues, and restarting can help refresh the project's dependencies.

4. Check your internet connectivity to ensure that your build tool can download the required dependency from the remote repository.

If none of these steps resolve the issue, please provide more details about your project configuration, such as the build tool, version, and any additional error messages you are encountering.
