Both are hints for tools. Both discuss header files. So why divide them up?
I think they should be in one package together. Personally, I think both
are better suited to the javax.tools.annotation package. I just wanted to
point out the division doesn't make all that sense.
The reason that @Native was moved from javax.tools to j.l.annotation is
because it was problematic for future modularization - ie: it would
result in a compilation time dependency on the tools module and would
also prevent its use in the base/core module.
