Annotation Type Uses

@Documented
 @Retention(value=RUNTIME)
 @Target(value=TYPE)
 @Repeatable(value=Uses.Container.class)
public @interface Uses

Marks that an annotated component implicitly uses another component. This will ensure that any dependencies of the used component are also loaded. For PolymerTemplate implementations, used components will also be instantiated if an element with the corresponding @Tag value is defined in the template.

Marking class A with @Uses(B.class) will ensure all StyleSheet, HtmlImport, JavaScript dependencies for class B are loaded when class A is used.
