Package com.codename1.annotations

package com.codename1.annotations

Codename One specific Java annotations used by the build pipeline and the ParparVM bytecode translator to mark methods and classes for special treatment -- e.g. opting individual call sites out of debug info or null/array-bounds checks, declaring asynchronous methods, or forcing a class to be treated as concrete during devirtualization.

Package	Description
com.codename1.annotations.buildhints	Build hints expressed as annotations, so the compiler checks them.
com.codename1.annotations.db	Mapping annotations for managed database persistence.
com.codename1.annotations.graphql	Annotations for declaring type safe GraphQL clients.
com.codename1.annotations.grpc	gRPC-Web client annotations.
com.codename1.annotations.rest	Annotations for declaring type safe REST clients.

Class	Description
AppIntent	Exposes a capability of your application to the system: Siri, Spotlight, the Shortcuts app, an Android launcher shortcut, a widget button, or a language model.
Async	Helper annotations for asynchronous computation.
Async.Execute	Indicates that the marked method executes async computation.
Async.Schedule	Indicates that the marked method schedules async computation.
Bind	Pairs a @Bindable field with the component it should mirror.
Bindable	Marks a POJO or PropertyBusinessObject as a target for the component binding processor.
Column	Renames or constrains an @Entity field's column.
Concrete	Indicates that a class has a known concrete implementation that ParparVM can target directly in native (C/Objective-C) pipelines.
DbTransient	Excludes an @Entity field from the generated table.
DisableDebugInfo	Marks a method so ParparVM omits emitted debug line information.
DisableNullChecksAndArrayBoundsChecks	Marks a method so ParparVM omits emitted null and array bounds checks.
Email	Requires the component value to be a syntactically valid e-mail address.
Entity	Marks a POJO or PropertyBusinessObject as a persistent entity, in the app and on the Codename One backend alike.
EntityId	The stable identifier of an IntentEntity instance.
EntityImage	The thumbnail for an IntentEntity instance, on a member returning com.codename1.ui.EncodedImage.
EntityQuery	Marks a public static method as one of an IntentEntity's lookups.
EntityQuery.Kind	The three lookups an entity type can offer.
EntitySubtitle	The secondary line shown under the EntityTitle.
EntityTitle	The primary line shown for an IntentEntity instance in a picker or a search result.
ExistIn	Requires the component value to be one of an allowed list of strings.
Fused	Marks a class whose constructor-created primitive-array fields are fully ENCAPSULATED, letting ParparVM allocate each instance TOGETHER with those arrays as a single heap block ("fused object"): one allocation instead of several, one object for the garbage collector instead of several, and the arrays share the owner's cache lines.
Id	Designates the primary-key field of an @Entity.
IntentEntity	Marks one of your application's own nouns -- an order, a playlist, a saved route -- as something the system can name, list, search and hand back to an AppIntent.
IntentParam	Names and describes one parameter of an AppIntent handler.
JsonAdapter	Hands a type's JSON form to the application's own JsonTypeAdapter.
JsonCreator	The constructor, or static factory method, that builds an immutable class from JSON.
JsonFormat	Picks the JSON shape a date or number field is written in.
JsonFormat.Shape	A JSON shape for a scalar value.
JsonIgnore	Excludes a @Mapped field from the JSON projection.
JsonOmitNull	Leaves a member that is null out of the JSON instead of writing null.
JsonProperty	Names a field in the JSON form, and says how a body may spell it.
JsonStrict	Refuses a body that carries a member this class does not declare.
JsonTypeAdapter<T>	Converts a value to and from its JSON form, for a field or class marked JsonAdapter.
Length	Requires the component value to have at least min characters.
Mapped	Marks a POJO or PropertyBusinessObject as a target for the build-time JSON / XML mapping processor.
Numeric	Requires the component value to parse as a number, optionally within a closed range.
OpenTelemetry	Traces the app with OpenTelemetry: every network request becomes a span, and carries the W3C trace context to the server it reaches, so a tap in the app and the backend work it caused are one trace.
Regex	Requires the component value to match a regular expression.
Required	Marks a @Bind field whose component must hold a non-empty value.
Route	Binds a Form class -- or a static method that returns a Form -- to a URL path so the framework can show it in response to a deep link.
Route.Routes	Container annotation for binding several path patterns to the same target.
RouteParam	Binds a constructor or static-factory parameter to a path variable or query parameter from an incoming deep link.
Url	Requires the component value to be a syntactically valid URL (http, https, ftp, or file scheme).
Validate	Escape hatch for the validation annotation set: points the component at a hand-written com.codename1.ui.validation.Constraint implementation.
XmlAttribute	Promotes a @Mapped field to an XML attribute on the parent element rather than a nested child element.
XmlElement	Renames a @Mapped field in the XML projection.
XmlRoot	Names the root XML element produced for a @Mapped class.
XmlTransient	Excludes a @Mapped field from the XML projection.
