A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
If an owner type of a nested parameterized type is annotated, the type annotation is not accessible via the reflection API.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Run the example code.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
The type annotation is found for foo and it is found for the correct type for bar.
ACTUAL -
The type annotation is not found for foo and found for the incorrect type for bar.

---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
public class Foo {

    @Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
    @Target(ElementType.TYPE_USE)
    @interface SampleTypeAnnotation { }

    static class GenericNested<T> {
        class Inner { }
    }

    @SampleTypeAnnotation GenericNested<?>. Inner foo;

    GenericNested<?>.@SampleTypeAnnotation Inner bar;

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        Field foo = Foo.class.getDeclaredField("foo");
        System.out.println(foo.getAnnotatedType().getType().toString());
        System.out.println(foo.getAnnotatedType().getAnnotations().length);
        System.out.println(foo.getAnnotatedType().getAnnotatedOwnerType().getType().toString());
        System.out.println(foo.getAnnotatedType().getAnnotatedOwnerType().getAnnotations().length);

        Field bar = Foo.class.getDeclaredField("bar");
        System.out.println(bar.getAnnotatedType().getType().toString());
        System.out.println(bar.getAnnotatedType().getAnnotations().length);
        System.out.println(bar.getAnnotatedType().getAnnotatedOwnerType().getType().toString());
        System.out.println(bar.getAnnotatedType().getAnnotatedOwnerType().getAnnotations().length);
    }
}
