|
- @Retention indicates how long annotations whose annotated types are annotated @Retention are to be retained.
- The value of @Retention can be one of the members of the java.lang.annotation.RetentionPolicy enum:
|
- SOURCE. Annotations are to be discarded by the Java compiler.
- CLASS. Annotations are to be recorded in the class file but not be retained by the JVM. This is the default value.
- RUNTIME. Annotations are to be retained by the JVM so you can query them using reflection.
