/**
* Indicates that an annotation type is automatically inherited. If
* an Inherited meta-annotation is present on an annotation type
* declaration, and the user queries the annotation type on a class
* declaration, and the class declaration has no annotation for this type,
* then the class's superclass will automatically be queried for the
* annotation type. This process will be repeated until an annotation for this
* type is found, or the top of the class hierarchy (Object)
* is reached. If no superclass has an annotation for this type, then
* the query will indicate that the class in question has no such annotation.
*
* <p>Note that this meta-annotation type has no effect if the annotated
* type is used to annotate anything other than a class. Note also
* that this meta-annotation only causes annotations to be inherited
* from superclasses; annotations on implemented interfaces have no
* effect.
