@IntDef or @StringDef do not show an error when assigning an invalid constant to a variable. Also, the annotation is not tracked for fields.

For instance

    private static final int TREE_PATH_ONE = 1;
    private static final int TREE_PATH_TWO = 2;
    private static final int TREE_PATH_THREE = 3;

    @IntDef(value = {
            TREE_PATH_ONE,
            TREE_PATH_TWO,
            TREE_PATH_THREE
    })
    @Retention(RetentionPolicy.SOURCE)
    private @interface Tree {
    }

    @Tree
    private int mTreeField = TREE_PATH_ONE;

    private void problem1() {
        @Tree int treeInvalid = 12; // Not marked as an error. Lint does not seem to track @IntDef
        // annotations for variables or fields
        //@Tree int treeValid = TREE_PATH_ONE;
        problem2(mTreeField); // Falsely marked as an error. Lint does not track @IntDef annotations
        // fields so it does not know the mTreeField is actually a @Tree
    }

    private void problem2(@Tree int tree) {

    }
