Ehcache is an open source, standards-based cache used to boost performance,
offload the database and simplify scalability. Ehcache is robust, proven and full-featured and
this has made it the most widely-used Java-based cache.
package org.codehaus.jackson.map.annotate;
/**
* Marker class used with annotations to indicate "no class". This is
* a silly but necessary work-around -- annotations can not take nulls
* as either default or explicit values. Hence for class values we must
* explicitly use a bogus placeholder to denote equivalent of
* "no class" (for which 'null' is usually the natural choice).
*
* Note before version 1.4, this marker class was under
* "org.codehaus.jackson.annotate". However, since it is only used
* by annotations in "org.codehaus.jackson.map.annotate" (and not externally
* exposed), it was moved to that package as of version 1.5.
