/**
 * Component Property Type (as defined by OSGi DS 1.4) for the condition for Sling Adapters.
 * Takes care of writing the service property <code>adapter.deprecated</code>.
 * <p>
 * The use of this annotation will only have an effect if used in conjunction with the {@link SlingAdapter}
 * annotation, which defines properties that are required for an {@link AdapterFactory} to be picked up.
 * <p>
 * Use this annotation to mark the adapter as deprecated. The only consequence of setting this property
 * is an indication in the Web Console Plugin, where it is made apparent to a developer that the use
 * of this adapter is deprecated and may not work anymore in the future.
