@Retention(value=RUNTIME)

public @interface Arg

Annotation specifies location where attribute should be stored.

You can annotate fields and methods. For methods, it must have only 1 format argument. Use dest() to specify which attribute to be assigned. If it is empty, the name of the attribute or method will be used instead. If the attribute value cannot be assigned to designated location, error will be issued. If you want to ignore this error, use ignoreError().
