/**
* Class annotation used to assist in the creation of tuple constructors in classes.
* Should be used with care with other annotations which create constructors - see "Known
* Limitations" for more details.
* <p>
* It allows you to write classes in this shortened form:
* <pre class="groovyTestCase">
* {@code @groovy.transform.TupleConstructor} class Customer {
* String first, last
* int age
* Date since
* Collection favItems
* }
* def c1 = new Customer(first:'Tom', last:'Jones', age:21, since:new Date(), favItems:['Books', 'Games'])
* def c2 = new Customer('Tom', 'Jones', 21, new Date(), ['Books', 'Games'])
* def c3 = new Customer('Tom', 'Jones')
* </pre>
* The {@code @TupleConstructor} annotation instructs the compiler to execute an
* AST transformation which adds the necessary constructor method to your class.
* <p>
* A tuple constructor is created with a parameter for each property (and optionally field and
* super properties).
* A default value is provided (using Java's default values) for all parameters in the constructor.
* Groovy's normal conventions then allows any number of parameters to be left off the end of the parameter list
* including all of the parameters - giving a no-arg constructor which can be used with the map-style naming conventions.
* <p>
* The order of parameters is given by the properties of any super classes with most super first
* (if {@code includeSuperProperties} is set) followed by the properties of the class followed
* by the fields of the class (if {@code includeFields} is set). Within each grouping the order
* is as attributes appear within the respective class.
* <p>More examples:</p>
* <pre class="groovyTestCase">
* //--------------------------------------------------------------------------
* import groovy.transform.TupleConstructor
*
* @TupleConstructor()
* class Person {
* String name
* List likes
* private boolean active = false
* }
*
* def person = new Person('mrhaki', ['Groovy', 'Java'])
*
* assert person.name == 'mrhaki'
* assert person.likes == ['Groovy', 'Java']
*
* person = new Person('mrhaki')
*
* assert person.name == 'mrhaki'
* assert !person.likes
* </pre>
* <pre class="groovyTestCase">
* //--------------------------------------------------------------------------
* // includeFields in the constructor creation.
* import groovy.transform.TupleConstructor
*
* @TupleConstructor(includeFields=true)
* class Person {
* String name
* List likes
* private boolean active = false
*
* boolean isActivated() { active }
* }
*
* def person = new Person('mrhaki', ['Groovy', 'Java'], true)
*
* assert person.name == 'mrhaki'
* assert person.likes == ['Groovy', 'Java']
* assert person.activated
* </pre>
* <pre class="groovyTestCase">

*
* Person(boolean active) {
* this.active = active
* }
*
* boolean isActivated() { active }
* }
*
* def person = new Person('mrhaki', ['Groovy', 'Java'])
*
* assert person.name == 'mrhaki'
* assert person.likes == ['Groovy', 'Java']
* assert !person.activated
*
* person = new Person(true)
*
* assert person.activated
* </pre>
* <pre class="groovyTestCase">
* //--------------------------------------------------------------------------
* // include properties and fields from super class.
* import groovy.transform.TupleConstructor
*
* @TupleConstructor(includeFields=true)
* class Person {
* String name
* List likes
* private boolean active = false
*
* boolean isActivated() { active }
* }

*
* assert student.name == 'mrhaki'
* assert student.likes == ['Groovy', 'Java']
* assert student.activated
* assert student.courses == ['IT']
* </pre>
* <p>
* Known Limitations:
* <ul>
* <li>This AST transform might become a no-op if you are defining your own constructors or
* combining with other AST transforms which create constructors (e.g. {@code @InheritConstructors});
* the order in which the particular transforms are processed becomes important in that case.
* See the {@code force} attribute for further details about customizing this behavior.</li>
* <li>This AST transform normally uses default parameter values which creates multiple constructors under
* the covers. You should use with care if you are defining your own constructors or
* combining with other AST transforms which create constructors (e.g. {@code @InheritConstructors});
* the order in which the particular transforms are processed becomes important in that case.
* See the {@code defaults} attribute for further details about customizing this behavior.</li>
* <li>Groovy's normal map-style naming conventions will not be available if the first property (or field)
* has type {@code LinkedHashMap} or if there is a single Map, AbstractMap or HashMap property (or field)</li>
* </ul>
