Annotation Type NodeTypeDefs

@Retention(value=SOURCE)
@Target(value=PACKAGE)
public @interface NodeTypeDefs

A package annotation that triggers node type generation for any Chromattic classes found in the annotated package. The node types are generated in a resource named by default nodetypes.xml in the annotated package. This resource should be available later at runtimpe via the ClassLoader.getResource(String) mechanism.

Class inclusion can be controlled and extended to sub packages with the deep() parameter.

Namespace can be declared and mapped to qualified name prefix to declare namespacing of the node types. For that matter the {#namespaces} parameter can be used.
