A while back, we added a new annotation javax.tools.GenerateNativeHeader, to mark classes that contained constants of interest to native code, such that tools, like javac with the -h option, could generate know to generate native header files. Based on our experience in using the new annotation, we have decided to change to using a different annotation, with the same purpose: java.lang.annotation.Native, to be used to annotate the constants themselves. This review is for step 1 of a 3 step process to replace javax.tools.GenerateNativeHeader with java.lang.annotation.Native. This first step is to add the new annotation. Separately, the goal is to replacing existing uses of @GenerateNativeHeader with @Native. Then, we will remove javax.tools.GenerateNativeHeader. -- Jon
