/**
|
|
* The presence of this annotation on a type indicates that the type may be used
|
|
* with the <a href="http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/">Google Web Toolkit</a>
|
|
* (GWT). When applied to a method, the return type of the method is GWT
|
|
* compatible. It's useful to indicate that an instance created by factory
|
|
* methods has a GWT serializable type. In the following example,
|
|
*
|
|
* <pre style="code">
|
|
* {@literal @}GwtCompatible
|
|
* class Lists {
|
|
* ...
|
|
* {@literal @}GwtCompatible(serializable = true)
|
|
* static <E> List<E> newArrayList(E... elements) {
|
|
* ...
|
|
* }
|
|
* }
|
|
* </pre>
|
|
* <p>
|
|
* The return value of {@code Lists.newArrayList(E[])} has GWT serializable
|
|
* type. It is also useful in specifying contracts of interface methods. In the
|
|
* following example,
|
|
*
|
|
* <pre style="code">
|
|
* {@literal @}GwtCompatible
|
|
* interface ListFactory {
|
|
* ...
|
|
* {@literal @}GwtCompatible(serializable = true)
|
|
* <E> List<E> newArrayList(E... elements);
|
|
* }
|
|
* </pre>
|
|
* <p>
|
|
* The {@code newArrayList(E[])} method of all implementations of {@code
|
|
* ListFactory} is expected to return a value with a GWT serializable type.
|
|
*
|
|
* <p>
|
|
* Note that a {@code GwtCompatible} type may have some {@link GwtIncompatible}
|
|
* methods.
