Basically you need to be able to reference an instance of your annotation in
your binding.

You can do this by implementing your annotation:

class AnnotationNameImpl implements @AnnotationName {
 ....
}

and then you can instantiate an instance in your binding:

bind(...).annotatedWith(new AnnotationNameImpl(AnEnum.someValue));

I bet you could also develop a simple service that would allow you do do:

class YourModule {
  ....

 @AnnotationName(AnEnum.someValue)
 private static final String annotatedString = null;

  protected void configure() {
     Annotation annotation =
         AnnotationReader.readAnnotationFrom(getClass(), "annotatedString");
     bind(....)
  }
}
