Annotation Type EntityDateCreated

@Retention(value=RUNTIME)
@Target(value={METHOD,FIELD})
public @interface EntityDateCreated

Marks a getter method or field as the date created time code (unix time code) for an entity, this can be a Date, Long, long, or String (will attempt to convert this to a long)
the convention is to try to convert the return from the "getDateCreated" method or the value in the "dateCreated" field
