public @interface EnsuresKeyForIf
```
Indicates that the given expressions evaluate to a value that is a key in all the given maps, if the method returns the given result (either true or false).
As an example, consider the following method in java.util.Map:
```
   @EnsuresKeyForIf(result=true, expression="key", map="this")
   public boolean containsKey(String key) { ... }
 
```
If an invocation m.containsKey(k) returns true, then the type of k can be inferred to be @KeyFor("m").
