# RefChecks 

###

#### abstract class RefChecks extends SubComponent with Transform

Post-attribution checking and transformation.

This phase performs the following checks.

- All overrides conform to rules.
- All type arguments conform to bounds.
- All type variable uses conform to variance annotations.
- No forward reference to a term symbol extends beyond a value definition.

It performs the following transformations.

- Local modules are replaced by variables and classes
- Calls to case factory methods are replaced by new's.
- Eliminate branches in a conditional if the condition is a constant

     (Since version 2.12.16) Use `formatString.format(value)` instead of `value.formatted(formatString)`, or use the `f""` string interpolator. In Java 15 and later, `formatted` resolves to the new method in String which has reversed parameters.
