Line 13: ==Critique== The implementation of this pattern presented above is rather specific to Java. Other object models support rich ways of quickly querying static data. For example, [[.NET Framework\|.NET]] supports attributes that can be used to associate any type of data with a class or with its members. As of [[J2SE]] 5.0, Java supports [[reflection (computer science)\|reflective]] [[annotation]]s that can be used to associate attributes with classes, interfaces, methods, [[Constructor (computer science)\|constructors]], [[Field (computer science)\|fields]] and [[Packages in Java\|packages]]. Annotation allow a rich and fine-grained association of [[metadata]] to program elements. [[Category:Software design patterns]]
