Package org.tquadrat.foundation.annotation

@API(status=STABLE, since="0.0.1") package org.tquadrat.foundation.annotation

Some specialised annotations that are either meant to support change management and field support (like @ClassVersion) or to provide other advanced functionality.

The marker annotations

• @MountPoint
• @NotRecord
• @PlaygroundClass
• @ProgramClass
• @UtilityClass

were introduced mainly to satisfy the inspections of IntelliJ IDEA; they can be configured to ignore some 'smells' when a class or method is annotated in some way.

The annotation @CR together with the container ChangeRequestList are meant to support the change management.
