Annotations

Summary

The OSID Java Binder supplies several Java annotation interfaces to help organize and identify methods in an implementing class.

Annotations

@OSID

The org.osid.binding.java.annotation.OSID method annotation can be used to mark a method as an implementation of an OSID method. This is merely informational and would naturally accompany the @Override annotation.

@OSID can provide a quick way to distinguish methods that implement the OSIDs from other methods that simply override.

@OSIDBinding

The org.osid.binding.java.annotation.OSIDBinding annotation can be used to mark a method that has been injected into the Java Binding but is not found in the OSID Specification.

@OSIDRecord

The org.osid.binding.java.annotation.OSIDRecord annotation can be used to mark a method that implements an OsidRecord.
