public @interface StringConversion

This annotation defines the implementation of StringConverter that is used to convert the value of annotated property into a String, or a String into the value.

If not applied, an attempt is made to derive the respective implementation from the type of the property; if this fails, no String conversion is used.

If the relevant StringConverter is implemented in the current project, it always has to be specified with this annotation, even when it is published as a service.
