-/**
- * <p>
- * Represents an element that can be annotated. The methods of this interface
- * provide reflection-based access to the annotations associated with a
- * particular element, such as a class, field, method or package. Each
- * annotation returned by these methods is both immutable and serializable.
- * The returned arrays may be freely modified, without any effect on the
- * arrays returned to future callers.
- * </p>
- * <p>
- * If an annotation refers to a type or enumeration constant that is
- * inaccessible, then a <code>TypeNotPresentException</code> or
- * <code>EnumConstantNotPresentException</code> will be thrown. Likewise,
- * invalid annotations will produce either a
- * <code>AnnotationTypeMismatchException</code> or
- * <code>IncompleteAnnotationException</code>.
