-----------------------------------

             Summary: Allow annotations to handle custom component definitions.
                 Key: FELIX-3699
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-3699
             Project: Felix
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: iPOJO
            Reporter: Issac Garcia


Custom components are well handled in iPOJO using the metadata.xml, for example:

<CustomComponent classname="MyClass" name="myCustomComponent">
    <requires field="service"/>
</CustomComponent>

The custom component definition will, for example, add handlers and so on. It 
works very well and is nice that iPOJO allows that kind of extensions. 

But we can't declare a custom component by using annotations, for example doing:

@CustomComponent
public class MyClass {...}

It will be a nice if iPOJO allows to do it using annotations, since the same 
functionality must be possible with the metadata.mxl and with annotations.
