Common annotations for the Java platform
The common annotations for the Java platform 1.2 Specification was developed under JSR 250. This section just gives you an overview of improvements in the API. The complete document specification (for more information) can be downloaded from http://jcp.org/aboutJava/communityprocess/mrel/jsr250/index.html.
