Annotation Type Live

@Documented
@Target(value={FIELD,LOCAL_VARIABLE,METHOD,PARAMETER})
public @interface Live

Indicates that the annotated object is "live" and that changes made to it will be reflected in its "owner" and vice versa. For example, if applied to a collection instance this would generally mean that the method will operate directly on the given collection instead of making a defensive copy of it.
