package scala.annotation
/** A marker for annotations that, when applied to a type, should be treated
* as a constraint on the annotated type.
*
* A proper constraint should restrict the type based only on information
* mentioned within the type. A Scala compiler can use this assumption to
* rewrite the contents of the constraint as necessary. To contrast, a type
* annotation whose meaning depends on the context where it is written
* down is not a proper constrained type, and this marker should not be
* applied. A Scala compiler will drop such annotations in cases where it
* would rewrite a type constraint.
