public interface AnnoOverrider
Modifes the annotations which apply to some annotated java element. AnnoOverrider is essentially a callback mechanism - it is consulted when an AnnnoViewer receives requests to view the annotations on a particular element. This model was chosen in the interests of efficiency, since the overrider doesn't have to worry about whether it's wasting time overriding annotations that will never be used anyway.
However, the callback approach can be ungainly, in the information you need to override annotations may not be readily available to you when it comes time to view the annotations. To help with this problem, see the StoredAnnoOverrider, which lets you determine your annotation overrides in a single pass and store them for later use in the View phase.
