Parameters:

property - The property being accessed.

Returns:

The value for the supplied property.

getAnnotationType

public TypeDescription getAnnotationType()

Returns a description of the annotation type of this annotation.

Returns:

A description of the annotation type of this annotation.

prepare

public <T extends java.lang.annotation.Annotation> AnnotationDescription.Loadable<T> prepare(java.lang.Class<T> annotationType)

Links this annotation description to a given annotation type such that it can be loaded. This does not cause the values of this annotation to be loaded.

Type Parameters:
