Annotation Type JsonSerializableSchema

@Target(value=TYPE)
 @Retention(value=RUNTIME)
public @interface JsonSerializableSchema

Annotation that can be used to define JSON Schema definition for the annotated class.

Note that annotation is often not needed: for example, regular Jackson beans that Jackson can introspect can be used without annotations, to produce JSON schema definition.
