    Description

      The javadoc for the annotations applied to an annotated element uses a verbose form; e.g.

          @Documented
          @Retention(value=RUNTIME)
          @Target(value=ANNOTATION_TYPE)
          public @interface Inherited

      The more compact

          @Documented
          @Retention(RUNTIME)
          @Target(ANNOTATION_TYPE)
          public @interface Inherited

      could often be used instead.
