Annotation Tag Dynamic Initializer
Identifier:
org.eclipse.jst.common.annotations.controller.annotationTagDynamicInitializer
Since:
This extension point is part of an interim API that is still under development and expected to change significantly before reaching stability. It is being made available at this early stage to solicit feedback from pioneering adopters on the understanding that any code that uses this API will almost certainly be broken (repeatedly) as the API evolves.
Description:
This extension point is used to allow for clients to define their annotation tags dynamically. This means that it is not necessary to statically define annotation tags using the tag-info extension point. The extensions for this point will be called just after initializing the static annotation tags from the tag-info extension point.
