java原生注解怎么去扩展的,如何扩展Java注释？

In my project I use pre-defined annotation @With:

@With(Secure.class)

public class Test { //....

The source code of @With:

@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)

@Target(ElementType.TYPE)

public @interface With {

Class>[] value() default {};

}

I want to write custom annotation @Secure, which will automatically place Secure.class to @With annotation. How to do that?

What if I do like this? Will it work?

@With(Secure.class)

@Target({ElementType.TYPE})

@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)

public @interface Secure {

}

From Java language specification, Chapter 9.6 Annotation Types:

No extends clause is permitted. (Annotation types implicitly extend annotation.Annotation.)

So, you can not extend an Annotation. you need to use some other mechanism or create a code that recognize and process your own annotation. Spring allows you to group other Spring's annotation in your own custom annotations. but still, no extending.
