DefaultAnnotationForMethods	Deprecated
DefaultAnnotationForParameters	Deprecated - use the JSR305 annotations instead, For example, you can use ParametersAreNonnullByDefault instead of @DefaultAnnotation(NonNull.class), and TypeQualifierDefault in general to define a type qualifier default.
DesireNoWarning	Annotation indicating that no FindBugs warnings of the specified type is desired.

• Annotations about expected/unexpected warnings in FindBugs regression tests
  • ExpectWarning Warnings expected to be generated
  • NoWarning Warnings that should not be generated
  • DesireWarning Warnings we wish to generated
  • DesireNoWarning Warnings we wish to not generate generated

There are another set of annotations used by an experimental detector for unclosed resources:

• CleanupObligation
• CreatesObligation
• DischargesObligation
