AttributeBinder (Hibernate Javadocs (hibernate-core))

```
@Incubating
public interface AttributeBinder<A extends Annotation>
```
Allows a user-written annotation to drive some customized model binding.
An implementation of this interface interacts directly with model objects like PersistentClass and Property to implement the semantics of some custom mapping annotation.
