/**
* Indicates that the annotated qualifier is the default qualifier in the qualifier hierarchy: it
* applies if the programmer writes no explicit qualifier and no other default has been specified
* for the location.
*
* Other defaults can be specified for a checker via the {@link DefaultFor} meta-annotation,
* which takes precedence over {@code DefaultQualifierInHierarchy}, or via {@link
* com.hazelcast.org.checkerframework.framework.type.GenericAnnotatedTypeFactory#addCheckedCodeDefaults(com.hazelcast.org.checkerframework.framework.util.defaults.QualifierDefaults)}.
*
*
The {@link DefaultQualifier} annotation, which targets Java code elements, takes precedence
* over {@code DefaultQualifierInHierarchy}.
*
*
Each type qualifier hierarchy may have at most one qualifier marked as {@code
* DefaultQualifierInHierarchy}.
*
* @checker_framework.manual #effective-qualifier The effective qualifier on a type (defaults and
* inference)
* @see com.hazelcast.org.checkerframework.framework.qual.DefaultQualifier
