extends Object

Interface for object that determines handling of annotations in regards to inheritance, overrides.

Nested Class Summary

static class

AnnotationConfiguration.StdConfiguration Simple implementation that can be configured with default behavior for unknown annotations, as well as explicit behaviors for enumerated annotation types.

Method Detail

getInclusionForClass

public abstract AnnotationInclusion getInclusionForClass(Class<? extends Annotation> annotationType)

Method called to figure out how to handle instances of specified annotation type when used as class annotation.

getInclusionForConstructor

public abstract AnnotationInclusion getInclusionForConstructor(Class<? extends Annotation> annotationType)

Method called to figure out how to handle instances of specified annotation type when used as constructor annotation.

Note that constructor annotations can never be inherited so this just determines between inclusion or non-inclusion.

getInclusionForField

public abstract AnnotationInclusion getInclusionForField(Class<? extends Annotation> annotationType)

Method called to figure out how to handle instances of specified annotation type when used as field annotation.

Note that field annotations can never be inherited so this just determines between inclusion or non-inclusion.

getInclusionForMethod

public abstract AnnotationInclusion getInclusionForMethod(Class<? extends Annotation> annotationType)

Method called to figure out how to handle instances of specified annotation type when used as method annotation.

Note that method annotations can be inherited for member methods, but not for static methods; for static methods thereby this just determines between inclusion and non-inclusion.
