@Documented
@Retention(RetentionPolicy.SOURCE)
@Target(ElementType.TYPE)
public @interface ActiveObject

Marks a class as an active object whose ActiveMethod-annotated methods are automatically routed through an internal actor for thread-safe, serialised execution.

All @ActiveMethod calls on the same instance are processed one at a time — no locks needed.

{@literal @ActiveObject
 class Account {
     private double balance = 0

     @ActiveMethod
     void deposit(double amount) { balance += amount }

     @ActiveMethod(blocking = false)
     Awaitable getBalance() { balance }
 }
 }
