/**
|

* Specifies that a JVM default method should be generated for non-abstract Kotlin interface member.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* This annotation requires explicit compilation flag to be enabled: `-Xenable-jvm-default`.
|
||||
* Also this requires jvmTarget 1.8 or higher.
|
||||
* Adding or removing this annotation to an interface member is a binary incompatible change.
|
||||
* @JvmDefault methods are excluded from interface delegation.
|
||||
* Usages of this annotation require an explicit compilation argument to be specified:
|
||||
* either `-Xjvm-default=enable` or `-Xjvm-default=compatibility`.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* * with `-Xjvm-default=enable`, only default method in interface is generated for each @[JvmDefault] method.
|
||||
* In this mode, annotating an existing method with @[JvmDefault] can break binary compatibility, because it will effectively
|
||||
* remove the method from the `DefaultImpls` class.
|
||||
* * with `-Xjvm-default=compatibility`, in addition to the default interface method, a compatibility accessor is generated
|
||||
* in the `DefaultImpls` class, that calls the default interface method via a synthetic accessor.
|
||||
* In this mode, annotating an existing method with @[JvmDefault] is binary compatible, but results in more methods in bytecode.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Removing this annotation from an interface member is a binary incompatible change in both modes.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Generation of default methods is only possible with JVM target bytecode version 1.8 (`-jvm-target 1.8`) or higher.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* @[JvmDefault] methods are excluded from interface delegation.
