Indicates that the named compiler warnings should be suppressed in the
annotated element (and in all program elements contained in the annotated
element). Note that the set of warnings suppressed in a given element is
a superset of the warnings suppressed in all containing elements. For
example, if you annotate a class to suppress one warning and annotate a
method to suppress another, both warnings will be suppressed in the method.
As a matter of style, programmers should always use this annotation
on the most deeply nested element where it is effective. If you want to
suppress a warning in a particular method, you should annotate that
method rather than its class. |
