public abstract class AnnotationLiteral<T extends Annotation>
extends Object
implements Annotation, Serializable

Supports inline instantiation of annotation type instances.

An instance of an annotation type may be obtained by subclassing AnnotationLiteral.

 public abstract class PayByQualifier
       extends AnnotationLiteral<PayBy>
       implements PayBy {}
 

An extension of AnnotationLiteral must do two things:

1. Must have the target annotation as its generic type
2. Must implement the target type

In particular, in-line anonymous extensions of AnnotationLiteral will not work because in-line anonymous extensions of AnnotationLiteral cannot implement the target annotation
