Annotation Type AttributeDef

@Documented
 @Retention(value=RUNTIME)
 @Target(value=METHOD)
public @interface AttributeDef

The AttributeDef annotation can be used to define ConstructorFor annotations (and the suitability of the constructor annotated with them, for creating jsba DBObjects using that constructor, given a Tuple with a specific heading) or they can be used to annotate setterMethods of jsba DBObject classes, such that the invocation of this settermethod (after having created the DBObject instance using a public no-arg constructor) can be linked to the presence in the tuple of the attribute named in the annotation.
