/**
 * Declares that a parameter to a method must be "compatible with" one of the type parameters in the
 * method's enclosing class, or on the method itself. "Compatible with" means that there can exist a
 * "reference casting conversion" from one type to the other (JLS 5.5.1).
 *
 * 

For example, {@link Collection#contains} would be annotated as follows: * *

{@code
 * interface Collection {
 *   boolean contains(@CompatibleWith("E") Object o);
 * }
 * }
* *

To indicate that invocations of {@link Collection#contains} must be passed an argument whose * type is compatible with the generic type argument of the Collection instance: * *

{@code
 * Collection stringCollection = ...;
 * boolean shouldBeFalse = stringCollection.contains(42); // BUG! int isn't compatible with String
 * }
* *

Note: currently, this annotation can't be used if the method overrides another method that has * {@code @CompatibleWith} already present. */ @Documented @Retention(RetentionPolicy.CLASS) @Target(ElementType.PARAMETER) public @interface CompatibleWith { String value(); }
