-
@Documented @Retention(RUNTIME) @Target({TYPE,PACKAGE}) public @interface IndexSubclasses
Index all subclasses of the annotated class or package.During compilation
ClassIndexProcessor
creates a resource files listing all classes extending annotated class or located inside annotated package.You can retrieve the list at runtime using either
ClassIndex.getSubclasses(Class)
orClassIndex.getPackageClasses(String)
.For subclasses of the annotated class the resource file name is compatible with what
ServiceLoader
expects. So if all the subclasses have a zero-argument constructor you can useServiceLoader
. For subclasses of given package index file is named "jaxb.index", it is located inside the package folder and it's format is compatible with whatJAXBContext.newInstance(String)
