Annotation Type ContractsProvided

@Documented
@Retention(value=RUNTIME)
@Target(value=TYPE)
public @interface ContractsProvided

An explicit list of contracts provided. Overrides any other contract metadata on subclasses or interfaces.

There are times when a service would like to either restrict Contracts that it provides, or would like to add subclasses or interfaces that are not naturally marked Contract to be contracts that it provides. In that case it should use ContractsProvided, which allows the service to explicitly say the contracts that it should provide.
