> The DeltaSpike sometimes requires to create new annotation. There are "parameter binding annotation" and "security binding annotation" in security module ([doc|https://deltaspike.apache.org/documentation/security.html]). If the anotation haven't this repention policy,then the annotation doesn't works ([explanation|http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3107970/how-do-different-retention-policies-affect-my-annotations]).
> This is a valid annotation
> {code:java}
> @Retention(value = RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
> @Target({ElementType.TYPE, ElementType.METHOD})
> @Documented
> @SecurityBindingType
> public @interface CustomSecurityBinding {
> }
> {code}
> and this doesn't work
> {code:java}
> //@Retention(value = RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
> @Target({ElementType.TYPE, ElementType.METHOD})
> @Documented
> @SecurityBindingType
> public @interface CustomSecurityBinding {
> }
> {code}
> I am not sure if that can be or should be validated.
