Annotation Type RequiredModifiers


  • @Documented
    @Retention(CLASS)
    @Target(ANNOTATION_TYPE)
    public @interface RequiredModifiers
    Annotation declaring that the target annotation requires all the specified modifiers. For example, an annotation declared as:
     @RequiredModifiers(modifier = Modifier.PUBLIC)
     @interface MyAnnotation {}
     

    will be considered illegal when used on non-public elements such as:

     @MyAnnotation void foo() {}

      • modifier

        Modifier[] modifier
        The required modifiers. The annotated element is illegal if any one or more of these modifiers are absent.

        Empty array has the same effect as not applying this annotation at all; duplicates are allowed but have no effect.

        Default:
        {}
