Annotation Type NonNullByDefault

@Documented
 @Retention(value=CLASS)
 @Target(value={PACKAGE,TYPE})
 @DefaultAnnotation(value=edu.umd.cs.findbugs.annotations.NonNull.class)
public @interface NonNullByDefault

Indicates that all parameters, return values and fields of the class or package are annotated with NonNull. The default behavior can be overwritten using Nullable.

While @ParametersAreNonnullByDefault means "the method parameters in that element are nonnull by default", @NonNullByDefault handles parameters and also return values and fields.

@NonNullByDefault is similar to @DefaultAnnotation(NonNull.class), but can be used together with Eclipse settings.
