+/**
+ * Provides a way for an annotation processor to report
+ * messages to the user.  Messages may use elements,
+ * annotations and annotation values to provide a location
+ * hint, but these may be either unavailable or only
+ * approximate.  Printing a message of kind
+ * {@link javax.tools.Diagnostic,Kind#ERROR} will cause
+ * an error to be raised.  How the messages are displayed
+ * is left to the implementor; it may be a simple use of
+ * {@code System.out} and/or {@code System.err} or something
+ * more graphical if the application has a user interface.
+ *
