@Target(allowedTargets = [AnnotationTarget.ANNOTATION_CLASS])
annotation class Repeatable

This meta-annotation determines that an annotation is applicable twice or more on a single code element

Link copied to clipboard
@Target(allowedTargets = [AnnotationTarget.ANNOTATION_CLASS])
annotation class Retention(val value: AnnotationRetention = AnnotationRetention.RUNTIME)

This meta-annotation determines whether an annotation is stored in binary output and visible for reflection. By default, both are true.
