Hello Miga Thanks for your response.
I had allready read those links, but doing so the second time did help!! I think that the fourth paragraph in http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/language/annotations.html said it all... "Annotations do not directly affect program semantics, but they do affect the way programs are treated by tools and libraries, which can in turn affect the semantics of the running program. Annotations can be read from source files, class files, or reflectively at run time. " Now please feel free to correct me if I am wrong. By writing my own Annotations I have to allso write a Tool to work on those Annotations? Is this a right understanding? At least I have a working homework for this LAB now, so I am happy! :-) My best regards - Halli On Sep 21, 10:05 am, miga <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello Alli, > > On Sep 21, 10:46 am, Hallgrímur Njálsson<[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi, every one > > > I am having a bit of a problem undestanding Java Annotations. > > You may read (if not already done) those documents: > > http://www.developer.com/java/other/article.php/10936_3556176_1/An-In... > > http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/language/annotations.html > > To put it briefly, annotations is a way to let the compiler of the > Java Virtual machine writes part of the code for you. > It was introduced in Java 1.5, but found its powerful use in Java 1.6. > And now has been introduced in JavaEE 6. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/javaprogrammingwithpassion?hl=en -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
