/**
* The presence of this annotation on a type indicates that the type may be
* used with the
* Google Web Toolkit (GWT).
* When applied to a method, the return type of the method is GWT compatible.
* It's useful to indicate that an instance created by factory methods has a GWT
* serializable type. In the following example,
*
*
* {@literal @}GwtCompatible
* class Lists {
* ...
* {@literal @}GwtCompatible(serializable = true)
* static <E> List<E> newArrayList(E... elements) {
* ...
* }
* }
*
* The return value of {@code Lists.newArrayList(E[])} has GWT
* serializable type. It is also useful in specifying contracts of interface
* methods. In the following example,
*
*
* {@literal @}GwtCompatible
* interface ListFactory {
* ...
* {@literal @}GwtCompatible(serializable = true)
* <E> List<E> newArrayList(E... elements);
* }
*
* The {@code newArrayList(E[])} method of all implementations of {@code
* ListFactory} is expected to return a value with a GWT serializable type.
*
*
Note that a {@code GwtCompatible} type may have some {@link
* GwtIncompatible} methods.
