A DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST :
People: recently, I discovered that, in SAP ABAP reports, parameters are specified in a very friendly manner, as follows:

parameter: p_name(8) type c default 'Duke' obligatory,
                     p_age type i.

With the addition of annotation types in Tiger, I think that the approach may be improved.


JUSTIFICATION :
Currently, equivalent functionality is very hard to code in Java, resulting in boiler plate code.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
Something like this:

class RFEDemo
{
       @parameter(name="name", type="String", default="Duke", required="yes")
       @parameter(name="age", type="Integer")
       public static void main(String[] args)
       {
                   . . .
       }
}

ACTUAL -
Boiler plate code!!!
