Interface AnnotatedClass

  • public interface AnnotatedClass
    The annotated class is a class or interface inheriting all annotations of a superclass and base interfaces. The annotation is inherited if there no ambiguity arises: if the annotation is not met several times in the superclass and base interfaces.

    Note: This class is a modified version of the original Fusionsoft Annotation library. See: http://www.fusionsoft-online.com/articles-java-annotations.php
