## Annotation Type DefaultValue

-     @Target(value={PARAMETER,METHOD,FIELD})
      @Retention(value=RUNTIME)
      @Documented
      public @interface DefaultValue

  Defines the default value of request meta-data that is bound using one of the following annotations: `PathParam`, `QueryParam`, `MatrixParam`, `CookieParam`, `FormParam`, or `HeaderParam`. The default value is used if the corresponding meta-data is not present in the request.

  If the type of the annotated parameter is `List`, `Set` or `SortedSet` then the resulting collection will have a single entry mapped from the supplied default value.

  If this annotation is not used and the corresponding meta-data is not present in the request, the value will be an empty collection for `List`, `Set` or `SortedSet`, `null` for other object types, and the Java-defined default for primitive types.
