Annotation Type Bindable


@Retention(value=SOURCE)
@Target(value={FIELD,TYPE})
public @interface Bindable

Annotates a groovy property or a class. When annotating a property it indicates that the property should be a bound property according to the JavaBeans spec, announding to listeners that the value has changed. When annotating a class it indicates that all groovy properties in that class should be bound as though each property had the annotation (even if it already has it explicitly). It is a compilation error to place this annotation on a field (that is nota property, i.e. has scope visibility modifiers). If a property with a user defined setter method is annotated the code block is wrapped with the needed code to fire off the event. //TODO discuss generated fields and methods
