public abstract class AnnotationIntrospector extends Object implements Versioned
NOTE: due to rapid addition of new methods (and changes to existing methods),
it is strongly recommended that custom implementations should not directly
extend this class, but rather extend NopAnnotationIntrospector
.
This way added methods will not break backwards compatibility of custom annotation
introspectors.

Default implementation returns a Singleton list with this introspector as contents. This usually works for sub-classes, except for proxy or delegating "container introspectors" which need to override implementation.
public Collection<AnnotationIntrospector> allIntrospectors(Collection<AnnotationIntrospector> result)
Default implementation adds this introspector in result; this usually works for sub-classes, except for proxy or delegating "container introspectors" which need to override implementation.
