JDK-4975724 - Need ACC_ANNOTATION bit to support JSR175
Description

Name: vpR10197			Date: 03/16/2004


The new class file specified in JSR202 (version >= 49) has additional class
access flag ACC_SYNTHETIC, ACC_ENUM and ACC_ANNOTATION, field access flags
ACC_ENUM and ACC_SYNTHETIC, and method access flags ACC_BRIDGE, ACC_VARARGS

java.lang.reflect.Modifier needs to be modified to reflect these new flags.

Comments
EVALUATION The Modifier class does not need to support these vm-only modifiers. This information is already available in other parts of the core reflection api; e.g. Class.isEnum, Method.isBridge, etc. Closing as not a bug. ###@###.### 2004-03-16
