Java Inherited Annotations

The open-source library of inherited annotations is for Java-developers solving the annotation inheritance task. The annotations being inherited are of classes, interfaces, or their methods. It uses the consistent inheritance model: inheritance proceeds only if the same annotation is not present on the same element (class, interface or method) within superclasses or superinterfaces. Annotations can be overridden within descendants. The library is open-source and free, with no restriction for commercial application.
