Built-in-Annotations-Java

Built-in annotations in Java are a form of syntactic metadata that provide information about the program without affecting its execution. Introduced in Java SE 5, these annotations can be applied to various program constructs such as classes, methods, and variables. They serve multiple purposes, including aiding the compiler in error detection, facilitating code generation, and enhancing runtime processing. Common built-in annotations include @Override, @Deprecated, and @SuppressWarnings, each designed to convey specific information to developers and tools. Understanding these annotations is essential for effective Java programming and leveraging frameworks that utilize them for various functionalities.
