/**
 * Delete command annotation
 *
 * A method annotated with the Delete annotation will generate a generic
 * implementation of a delete administrative command responsible for
 * delete instances of the type as referenced by the annotated method.
 *
 * The deleted type is determine by the annotated method which must
 * follow one of the two following patterns :
 *      List getXs();
 * or
 *      void setX(X x);
 *
 * X is the type of instance that will be deleted, the name of the
 * method is actually immaterial. So for example, the following
 * 
 * @Delete
 * public List getAllMyFoos();
 * @Delete
 * public void setMySuperFoo(Foo foo);
 * @Delete
 * public List getFoos();
 * @Delete
 * public List getFoo();
 * 
 *
 * will all be valid annotated methods.
 *
 * The instance to be removed from the parent must be resolved by the
 * resolver attribute. The resolver can use injection or the command
 * invocation parameters (using the {@link org.glassfish.api.Param}
 * annotation) to get enough information to look up or retrieve the
 * instance to be deleted.
 *
 * Usually, most instances can be looked up by using the instance type
 * and its key (provided by the --name or --target parameters for instance).
 *
 * See {@link Create} for initialization information
