/**
 * 
 * The com.vmlens.annotation.DoNotTrace annotation lets you define methods that should not be traced by vmlens. 
 * This allows you to enforce a specific ordering of your thread without influencing the data race detection of vmlens. 
 * In the following example, the CountDownLatch creates a happens-before relation between the i++ in the methods updateBefore and updateAfter:
 *   public class UpdateWithDoNotTrace {
    private int i = 0;
    final   CountDownLatch countDownLatch = 
        new CountDownLatch(1);  
    @DoNotTrace
    private void signal() {
        countDownLatch.countDown();
    }
    @DoNotTrace
    private void wait4Signal() 
            throws InterruptedException {
        countDownLatch.await();
    }
    public void updateBefore() {
        i++;
        signal();
    }
    public void updateAfter() 
            throws InterruptedException {
        wait4Signal();
        i++;
    }
}
