/**
* Configuration paramater field annotation.
*
* Helps supports reflective injection of {@link org.milyn.delivery.ContentHandler} paramaters
* from its {@link org.milyn.cdr.SmooksResourceConfiguration} instance. To inject the whole
* {@link org.milyn.cdr.SmooksResourceConfiguration} instance, use the {@link @org.milyn.cdr.annotation.Config}
* annotation.
*
* Usage
* Where the paramater name is the same as the field name:
*
* @ConfigParam(decoder={@link org.milyn.javabean.decoders.IntegerDecoder}.class)
* private int maxDigits;
*
* Where the paramater name is NOT the same as the field name:
*
* @ConfigParam(name="max-digits", decoder={@link org.milyn.javabean.decoders.IntegerDecoder}.class)
* private int maxDigits;
