<P>
Abstract class that defines API used for introspecting annotation-based
 configuration for serialization and deserialization. Separated
 so that different sets of annotations can be supported, and support
 plugged-in dynamically.
<p>
 NOTE: due to rapid addition of new methods (and changes to existing methods),
 it is <b>strongly</b> recommended that custom implementations should not directly
 extend this class, but rather extend <A HREF="../../../../com/fasterxml/jackson/databind/introspect/NopAnnotationIntrospector.html" title="class in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.introspect"><CODE>NopAnnotationIntrospector</CODE></A>.
 This way added methods will not break backwards compatibility of custom annotation
 introspectors.
