<pre>public interface <span class="typeNameLabel">AnnotationMember</span></pre>
<div class="block">The value of an annotation member. Annotation member values are of several kinds:
<ul>
<li>primitive constants;</li>
<li><code>String</code> constants;</li>
<li><code>Enum</code> constants;</li>
<li><code>Class</code> literals;</li>
<li>nested <code>Annotation</code>s;</li>
<li>arrays of previously mentioned types.</li>
</ul>
The <a href="../../../../jakarta/enterprise/lang/model/AnnotationMember.html#kind--"><code>kind()</code></a> method returns the kind of this annotation member value. The <code>is*</code> methods
(such as <a href="../../../../jakarta/enterprise/lang/model/AnnotationMember.html#isBoolean--"><code>isBoolean()</code></a>) allow checking if this annotation member value is of given kind.
The <code>as*</code> methods (such as <a href="../../../../jakarta/enterprise/lang/model/AnnotationMember.html#asBoolean--"><code>asBoolean()</code></a>) allow "unwrapping" this annotation member value,
if it is of the corresponding kind.
<p>
Note that the <code>as*</code> methods do not perform type conversion, so if this annotation member value
is an <code>int</code>, calling <code>asLong()</code> will throw an exception.
<p>
Implementations of this interface are required to define the <code>equals</code> and <code>hashCode</code> methods.
Implementations of this interface are encouraged to define the <code>toString</code> method such that
it returns a text resembling the corresponding Java&trade; syntax.
<p>
There is no guarantee that any particular annotation member, represented by an implementation of this interface,
will always be represented by the same object. This includes natural singletons such as <code>boolean</code> values.
Instances should always be compared using <code>equals</code>.</div>
