026/**
027 * REST request header annotation.
028 *
029 * <p>
030 * Identifies a POJO to be used as the header of an HTTP request.
031 *
032 * <p>
033 * Can be used in the following locations:
034 * <ul>
035 *    <li>Arguments and argument-types of server-side <ja>@RestOp</ja>-annotated methods.
036 *    <li>Arguments and argument-types of client-side <ja>@RemoteResource</ja>-annotated interfaces.
037 *    <li>Methods and return types of server-side and client-side <ja>@Request</ja>-annotated interfaces.
038 * </ul>
039 *
040 * <h5 class='topic'>Arguments and argument-types of server-side @RestOp-annotated methods</h5>
041 * <p>
042 * Annotation that can be applied to a parameter of a <ja>@RestOp</ja>-annotated method to identify it as a HTTP
043 * request header.
044 *
045 * <h5 class='section'>Example:</h5>
046 * <p class='bjava'>
047 *    <ja>@RestGet</ja>
048 *    <jk>public void</jk> doGet(<ja>@Header</ja>(<js>"ETag"</js>) UUID <jv>etag</jv>) {...}
049 * </p>
050 *
051 * <p>
052 * This is functionally equivalent to the following code...
053 * <p class='bjava'>
054 *    <ja>@RestGet</ja>
055 *    <jk>public void</jk> doGet(RestRequest <jv>req</jv>, RestResponse <jv>res</jv>) {
056 *       UUID <jv>etag</jv> = <jv>req</jv>.getHeader(<js>"ETag"</js>).as(UUID.<jk>class</jk>).orElse(<jk>null</jk>);
057 *       ...
058 *    }
059 * </p>
