Annotation Type InterceptionBinder

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

This annotation is placed on an annotation that can be used to indicate a binding between an interceptor (annotated with Interceptor) and a class to be intercepted (annotated with Intercepted). The annotation on which this annotation is placed must have RUNTIME retention and have a Target of TYPE or METHOD (or ANNOTATION_TYPE for transitive bindings). When an annotation annotated with this annotation is put on an implementation of MethodInterceptor or ConstructorInterceptor and which is also annotated with Interceptor then it becomes associated with that interceptor. These interceptors will be called on methods of any service annotated with Intercepted appropriately. When an annotation annotated with this annotation is used with an hk2 service marked with Intercepted it can either be put on the entire class, in which case EVERY method of that class will be intercepted, or it can be placed on individual methods of the service to indicate that only those methods should be intercepted. If it is placed both at the class level and on individual methods then every method will be intercepted. Annotations annotated with InterceptionBinder are transitive. In other words if an annotation is annotated with ANOTHER annotation that is marked with InterceptionBinder then any interceptor marked with the other annotation also applies to any service or method marked with this annotation
