Re: Java Annotations?

Is there (or are there any plans for) a facility to annotate functions

It is not currently supported, and there are no *immediate* plans. However, it is on the list of goals, and I have done a little bit of thinking about what's involved. It's not a trivial hack - the representation of annotations in class files is pretty complex. And then we have to map that into a Scheme syntax.

It's definitely desirable, but there are other projects higher
up on the task list, so I have no idea when/if it will get done.
