- Class
  Description
  Advise
  An annotation that may be placed on a advisor method of a module.
  AnnotationUseContext
  Constants for documenting the context wherein the tapestry-provided annotations may be used, in conjunction with `UseWith`.
  Autobuild
  Directs that the value to be built should be an autobuild instance of the type with injections performed, via ObjectLocator.html#autobuild(Class).
  ComponentClasses
  Marker annotation used to inject the correct InvalidationEventHub service responsible for invalidations when underlying component class files are changed.
  ComponentLayer
  Marker annotation used to identify a service from the component layer that conflicts, in terms of service interface, with a service from elsewhere.
  Contribute
  An annotation that may be placed on a contributor method of a module.
  Decorate
  An annotation that may be placed on a decorator method of a module.
  Description
  Annotation used by Tapestry to describe the annotated class or package in runtime, specially in the T5Dashboard page.
  EagerLoad
  Marker annotation placed on a service builder method to indicate that the service should be eagerly loaded: realized as if a service method had been invoked.
  ImportModule
  Attached to a module class, this annotation identifies other module classes that should also be added to the Registry.
  IncompatibleChange
  Inject
  This annotation serves is something of the Swiss Army knife for operations related to injection of dependencies into an arbitrary method of Java Bean.
  InjectResource
  Deprecated.
  Deprecated in Tapestry 5.3, to be removed in a later release.
  InjectService
  Annotation used with parameters of service builder methods to identify the service to be injected into the service builder method via the parameter.
  IntermediateType
  Used to guide Tapestry when coercing from a raw type to a field or parameter type, by forcing Tapestry to coerce to the intermediate type.
  Local
  A special marker annotation which limits the search for possible services to just the same module containing the service being injected.
  Marker
  Used to define one or more ServiceDef#getMarkers() marker annotations for a service implementation.
  Match
  Optional, but typically used, annotation for service decorator methods, used to define which services the decorator applies to.
  NotLazy
  Marks a method as specifically not-lazy, even if other methods in the same interface are being advised as lazy.
  Operation
  Describes a method as one that should be operation tracked.
  Optional
  Marks a service contribution method within a module as being optional: it is not an error if the contribution does not match against an actual service.
  Order
  Used with a service decorator method to control the order in which decorations occur.
  PostInjection
  Annotation for methods that should be invoked after injection.
  PreventServiceDecoration
  Marks a service as not eligible for decoration.
  Primary
  Marker annotation used to denote a service that is the primary instance of some common interface.
  Scope
  An optional annotation that may be placed on a service building method of a module, or on the implementation class (when using service binding).
  ServiceId
  An optional annotation that may be placed on a service building method of a module, or on the implementation class (when using service binding via the `ServiceBinder`).
  Startup
  An annotation that may be placed on a startup method of a module.
  SubModule
  Deprecated.
  Deprecated in 5.4, use `ImportModule` instead.
  Symbol
  Used to inject a symbol value, via a symbol name.
  UsesConfiguration
  A documentation-only interface placed on service interfaces for services which have an unordered configuration, to identify the type of contribution.
  UsesMappedConfiguration
  A documentation-only interface placed on service interfaces for services which have a mapped configuration, to identify the type of key (often, a String), and type of contribution.
  UsesOrderedConfiguration
  A documentation-only interface placed on service interfaces for services which have an ordered configuration, to identify the type of contribution.
  UseWith
  Annotation documenting the context(s) in which tapestry-provided annotations may be used.
  Value
  Used in conjunction with `Inject` to inject a literal value, rather than a service.
