/**
* An annotation that indicates the version number until a member or a type should be present.
* Basically, if Gson is created with a version number that exceeds the value stored in the
* {@code Until} annotation then the field will be ignored from the JSON output. This annotation
* is useful to manage versioning of your JSON classes for a web-service.
*
*
* This annotation has no effect unless you build {@link com.google.gson.Gson} with a
* {@link com.google.gson.GsonBuilder} and invoke
* {@link com.google.gson.GsonBuilder#setVersion(double)} method.
*
*
Here is an example of how this annotation is meant to be used:
*
* public class User {
* private String firstName;
* private String lastName;
* @Until(1.1) private String emailAddress;
* @Until(1.1) private String password;
* }
*
*
* If you created Gson with {@code new Gson()}, the {@code toJson()} and {@code fromJson()}
* methods will use all the fields for serialization and deserialization. However, if you created
* Gson with {@code Gson gson = new GsonBuilder().setVersion(1.2).create()} then the
* {@code toJson()} and {@code fromJson()} methods of Gson will exclude the {@code emailAddress}
* and {@code password} fields from the example above, because the version number passed to the
* GsonBuilder, {@code 1.2}, exceeds the version number set on the {@code Until} annotation,
* {@code 1.1}, for those fields.
