Annotation Type Modifying

@Retention(value=RUNTIME)
 @Target(value={METHOD,ANNOTATION_TYPE})
 @Documented
public @interface Modifying

Indicates a query method should be considered as modifying query as that changes the way it needs to be executed. This annotation is only considered if used on query methods defined through a Query annotation. It's not applied on custom implementation methods or queries derived from the method name as they already have control over the underlying data access APIs or specify if they are modifying by their name.

Queries that require a `@Modifying` annotation include INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, and DDL statements.
