/**
* This annotation can be applied to the value() element of an annotation that
* is annotated as a TypeQualifier. This is only appropriate if the value field
* returns a value that is an Enumeration.
*
* Applications of the type qualifier with different values are exclusive, and
* the enumeration is an exhaustive list of the possible values.
*
* For example, the following defines a type qualifier such that if you know a
* value is neither {@literal @Foo(Color.Red)} or {@literal @Foo(Color.Blue)},
* then the value must be {@literal @Foo(Color.Green)}. And if you know it is
* {@literal @Foo(Color.Green)}, you know it cannot be
* {@literal @Foo(Color.Red)} or {@literal @Foo(Color.Blue)}
*
* <code>
* @TypeQualifier @interface Foo {
* enum Color {RED, BLUE, GREEN};
* @Exhaustive Color value();
* }
* </code>
