Indicates how long annotations with the annotated interface are to be retained.

[Android.Runtime.Register("java/lang/annotation/Retention", "", "Java.Lang.Annotation.IRetentionInvoker")]
public interface IRetention : IDisposable, Java.Interop.IJavaPeerable, Java.Lang.Annotation.IAnnotation

[<Android.Runtime.Register("java/lang/annotation/Retention", "", "Java.Lang.Annotation.IRetentionInvoker")>]
type IRetention = interface
    interface IAnnotation
    interface IJavaObject
    interface IDisposable
    interface IJavaPeerable

Attributes: RegisterAttribute

Implements: IJavaObject IJavaPeerable IAnnotation IDisposable

Remarks

Indicates how long annotations with the annotated interface are to be retained. If no Retention annotation is present on an annotation interface declaration, the retention policy defaults to RetentionPolicy.CLASS.

A Retention meta-annotation has effect only if the meta-annotated interface is used directly for annotation. It has no effect if the meta-annotated interface is used as a member interface in another annotation interface.

Properties

Handle	Gets the JNI value of the underlying Android object. (Inherited from IJavaObject)
JniIdentityHashCode	Returns the value of `java.lang.System.identityHashCode()` for the wrapped instance. (Inherited from IJavaPeerable)
JniManagedPeerState	State of the managed peer. (Inherited from IJavaPeerable)
JniPeerMembers	Member access and invocation support. (Inherited from IJavaPeerable)
PeerReference	Returns a JniObjectReference of the wrapped Java object instance. (Inherited from IJavaPeerable)

Methods

AnnotationType()	Returns the annotation interface of this annotation. (Inherited from IAnnotation)
Disposed()	Called when the instance has been disposed. (Inherited from IJavaPeerable)
DisposeUnlessReferenced()	If there are no outstanding references to this instance, then calls `Dispose()`; otherwise, does nothing. (Inherited from IJavaPeerable)
Equals(Object)	Returns true if the specified object represents an annotation that is logically equivalent to this one. (Inherited from IAnnotation)
Finalized()	Called when the instance has been finalized. (Inherited from IJavaPeerable)
GetHashCode()	Returns the hash code of this annotation. (Inherited from IAnnotation)
SetJniIdentityHashCode(Int32)	Set the value returned by `JniIdentityHashCode`. (Inherited from IJavaPeerable)
SetJniManagedPeerState(JniManagedPeerStates)	(Inherited from IJavaPeerable)
SetPeerReference(JniObjectReference)	Set the value returned by `PeerReference`. (Inherited from IJavaPeerable)
ToString()	Returns a string representation of this annotation. (Inherited from IAnnotation)
UnregisterFromRuntime()	Unregister this instance so that the runtime will not return it from future Java.Interop.JniRuntime+JniValueManager.PeekValue invocations. (Inherited from IJavaPeerable)
Value()	Returns the retention policy.

Extension Methods

JavaCast<TResult>(IJavaObject)	Performs an Android runtime-checked type conversion.
JavaCast<TResult>(IJavaObject)
GetJniTypeName(IJavaPeerable)
