Annotation Type RooEditor

@Retention(value=SOURCE)
@Target(value=TYPE)
public @interface RooEditor

Indicates a type that requires ROO property editor support.

This annotation will cause ROO to produce code that would typically appear in a property editor which, in turn is required by MVC controllers. Importantly, such code does NOT depend on any singletons and is intended to safely serialise. In the current release this code will be emitted to an ITD.

There are two cases in which ROO will not emit one or more of the above artifacts:

• The user provides the equivalent object himself. ROO will check for this by naming convention where it will look for a class name with the 'Editor' suffix in the same directory for types that require editors.
