/**
 * This is a declaration annotation that applies to type declarations. Some classes conceptually
 * take a type qualifier parameter. This annotation indicates that this class and its subclasses
 * explicitly do not do so. The only reason to write this annotation is when {@code
 * HasQualifierParameter} is enabled by default, by writing {@code HasQualifierParameter} on a
 * package.
 *
 * When a class is {@code @NoQualifierParameter}, all its subclasses are as well.
 *
 * 
One or more top qualifiers must be given for the hierarchies for which there are no qualifier
 * parameters. This annotation may not be written on the same class as {@code HasQualifierParameter}
 * for the same hierarchy.
 *
 * 
It is an error for a superclass to be {@code @HasQualifierParameter} but a subclass to be
 * {@code @NoQualifierParameter} for the same hierarchy.
