Provides for annotations to the model so that tooling can add metadata to the model for its own use. These annotations can optionally be stored as special comments in the source.

Package Specification

Annotations are stored in an {@link com.ibm.etools.iseries.dds.dom.AnnotationContainer} which can be parented by any {@link com.ibm.etools.iseries.dds.dom.DdsStatement}. They can be optionally persisted into the DDS source as {@link com.ibm.etools.iseries.dds.dom.SpecialComment}.

Some annotations are used for WebSettings to customize the conversion of DDS records to JSPs. Each type of WebSetting has a corresponding WSxxx subclass associated with it and extends the {@link com.ibm.etools.iseris.dds.dom.annotations.WebSetting} class.
