Annotation Type PassThru

@Documented
@Retention(value=RUNTIME)
@Target(value=METHOD)
public @interface PassThru

Marks a task method that may be executed when a task is added through Orchestrator.addPassThru(Object) rather than Orchestrator.addWork(Object). A @PassThru method is intended to capture behavior applicable when a task's main @Work method(s) should not be invoked. For example, it might simply provide some hardwired defaults, or retrieve data from one of its task arguments and pass it through with little or no change. Accordingly, a @PassThru task is always considered 'light', i.e. it is expected to run quickly so no separate thread ever need be spawned for it.
