Annotation Type PackageLocal

@Documented
 @Retention(value=SOURCE)
 @Target(value={METHOD,FIELD,CONSTRUCTOR,TYPE})
public @interface PackageLocal

@PackageLocal marks an element as intentionally package scoped. The audience is library maintainers documenting visibility choices.

Retention and effect: Retained only in the source and discarded by the compiler. There is no runtime effect unless tooling inspects the source.

  @PackageLocal class Helper { }
 

Package-private access avoids SecurityManager checks and can enable sealed hierarchies. Use this annotation to silence IDE warnings such as "access can be private".
