Annotation Interface Internal


@Documented @Retention(RUNTIME) public @interface Internal
Program elements annotated @Internal are intended for POI internal use only. Such elements are not public by design and likely to be removed, have their signature change, or have their access level decreased from public to protected, package, or private in future versions of POI without notice. @Internal elements are eligible for immediate modification or removal and are not subject to the POI project policy of deprecating an element for 2 major releases before removing.
