Annotation Interface BundleDevelopers

@Retention(CLASS) @Target({ANNOTATION_TYPE,TYPE}) public @interface BundleDevelopers
Maven defines developers in the POM. This annotation will generate a (not standardized by OSGi) Bundle-Developers header.

This annotation can be used directly on a type or it can 'color' an annotation. This coloring allows custom annotations that define a specific developer. For example: 

  @BundleContributor("[email protected]") @interface pkriens
 {} @pkriens public class MyFoo { ... }
Duplicates are removed before the header is generated and the coloring does not create an entry in the header, only an annotation on an actual type is counted. This makes it possible to make a library of developers without then adding them all to the header.

See the Maven documentation for more information.
