Chuck,
It seems you are getting the annotation for the class itself and
not the method.
What worked for me was the following:
1. You need to get to the method. I used:
MyOwnAnnotationExample.class.getMethod passing it a string
containing the name of the method, followed by the types of the
parameters (as Class types).
2. When you have the method, you can used the reflection API's
getAnnotations or
getDeclaredAnnotations (they both seemed to work for me) called on
the
Method object returned from getMethod.
Does anybody know of a better way to get the Method object for the
current method?
Regards,
Steve
