David Lloyd commented on LOGTOOL-91:
------------------------------------

Yeah looks good. I'd probably default to 0 rather than MIN_VALUE though.

> I'd rather be able to do this:
> {code}
>     @Message(id = 28, value = "An unexpected protocol error occurred")
>     @Property(name = "errorCode", intValue = XAException.XAER_RMFAIL)
>     XAException protocolErrorXA();

> {code}
> The same annotation ({{@Property}}) could be reused by making it multi-valued (i.e. invisible wrapper annotation) and adding in defaulted {{xxxValue}} parameters (primitive types, {{Class<XX>}}, and {{String}}) which are rejected when applied directly to a method parameter.
