/**
* Identifies qualifier annotations. Anyone can define a new qualifier. A
* qualifier annotation:
*
*
* - is annotated with {@code @Qualifier}, {@code @Retention(RUNTIME)},
* and typically {@code @Documented}.
* - can have attributes.
* - may be part of the public API, much like the dependency type, but
* unlike implementation types which needn't be part of the public
* API.
* - may have restricted usage if annotated with {@code @Target}. While
* this specification covers applying qualifiers to fields and
* parameters only, some injector configurations might use qualifier
* annotations in other places (on methods or classes for example).
*
*
* For example:
*
*
* @java.lang.annotation.Documented
* @java.lang.annotation.Retention(RUNTIME)
* @org.apache.pulsar.shade.javax.inject.Qualifier
* public @interface Leather {
* Color color() default Color.TAN;
* public enum Color { RED, BLACK, TAN }
* }
*
* @see javax.inject.Named @Named
