Annotation Type Subscriber

@Retention(value=RUNTIME)
 @Target(value=METHOD)
public @interface Subscriber

Annotation for methods to receive events with the Informer.

Decorate any public method with one argument of some public class, then call Informer.register(Object, boolean) to receive events that can be casted to the type of the argument. E.g. if the argument type is Object, it will receive all notifications.

The return type usually is void. If the method returns boolean, it should return true to break event propagation, meaning that other @Subscriber will not receive this event. This approach should be used with care as the order of invocation of subscriber methods and objects is not specified. Created by sergeych on 14/02/16.
