Annotation Type LcdService

@Retention(value=RUNTIME)
 @Documented
 @Target(value=TYPE)
public @interface LcdService

Indicates that the annotated class should be listed into the META-INF/services/CONTRACTNAME.

• If the class for which this annotation is placed only has one base class or one interface, then the CONTRACTNAME is the fully qualified name of that type.
• Otherwise, the service() element is required to specify the contract type name.

The annotation also has an optional priority() element that can be used to order the services.

• Default is 10000
• Higher values mean lower priority
• Lower (up to and including zero) values mean higher priority
• Built-in values are HIGH_PRIORITY, DEFAULT_PRIORITY, LOW_PRIORITY and FALLBACK_PRIORITY

The annotation is retained at runtime.

The TLcdServiceAnnotationProcessor processes these annotations to automatically create corresponding files in the META-INF/services folders at compile time.

2013.0
