```
default Set<String> getStereotypeAnnotationNames()
```
    Description copied from interface: AnnotationMetadata
    
    Returns the names of the annotations which are stereotypes.
    A stereotype is a meta-annotation (an annotation declared on another annotation).
    
    Specified by:
    
    getStereotypeAnnotationNames in interface AnnotationMetadata
    
    Returns:
    
    The names of the stereotype annotations

  - getDeclaredStereotypeAnnotationNames
```
default Set<String> getDeclaredStereotypeAnnotationNames()
```
    Description copied from interface: AnnotationMetadata
    
    Returns the names of the annotations which are declared stereotypes.
    A stereotype is a meta-annotation (an annotation declared on another annotation).
    
    A stereotype is considered declared when it it is a meta-annotation that is present on an annotation directly declared on the element and not inherited from a super class.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getDeclaredStereotypeAnnotationNames in interface AnnotationMetadata
    
    Returns:
    
    The names of the stereotype annotations

    Description copied from interface: AnnotationSource
    
    Synthesizes a new annotation from the metadata for the given annotation type. This method works by creating a runtime proxy of the annotation interface and should be avoided in favour of direct use of the annotation metadata and only used for unique cases that require integrating third party libraries.
    This method ignores inherited annotations. (Returns null if no annotations are directly present on this element.)
