public class OverlayAnnotation extends AbstractChangeable implements Annotation, Serializable
getProperty is called, we first check
for a value stored in the overlay. If this fails, the
underlying Annotation is checked. Values
passed to setProperty are always stored
within the overlay.| Modifier and Type | Class and Description |

AbstractChangeable
Your implementation of this method should have the following structure:
ChangeSupport cs = super.getChangeSupport(ct);
if(someForwarder == null && ct.isMatching(SomeInterface.SomeChangeType)) {
someForwarder = new ChangeForwarder(...
this.stateVariable.addChangeListener(someForwarder, VariableInterface.AChange);
}
return cs;

public void setProperty(Object key, Object value) throws ChangeVetoException
AnnotationSet the value of a property.
This method throws an exception if either properties can not be added to this object, or that this particular property is immutable or illegal within the implementation.
Normal raw access to the property. For cleverer access, use methods in AnnotationType.setProperty in interface Annotationkey - the key objectvalue - the new value for this keyChangeVetoException - if this annotation object can't be changed, or
if the change was vetoed.public void removeProperty(Object key) throws ChangeVetoException

AnnotationRetrieve the value of a property by key.
Unlike the Map collections, it will complain if the key does not exist. It will only return null if the key is defined and has value null.
