What you mean saying "attributes"?<
See for example:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_annotation
It's not an esoteric thing, It's a way to add some extra semantics to a program.
In a low-level language like D there are other possible purposes for
annotations/attributes (that aren't useful in Java), you can add semantics that
helps avoid bugs or can be used by the optimizer to increase the efficiency of
the compiled program (GCC too has some of such function/variable attributes), I
can show some examples.

Thanks for answer! I know Java annotations - I just didn't know what you
meant saying "attribute".
