Description

Sometimes you want to add static service properties to a component that you don't need to mirror in fields. This is of particular use when the component uses a generic specification (i.e. JComponent.class) but uses service properties to further classify the specification (i.e. name=foo;location=toolbar). An example of annotating a class for this would be

@Provides{ specifications =

{JComponent.class}

, properties = {@ServiceProperty

{name="name", value="foo"}

,@ServiceProperty

{name="location", value="toolbar"}

}} )
