open static fun <A : Annotation> findMergedRepeatableAnnotations(element: AnnotatedElement, annotationType: Class<A>): MutableSet<A>
Find all repeatable annotations of the specified annotationType within the annotation hierarchy above the supplied element; and for each annotation found, merge that annotation's attributes with matching attributes from annotations in lower levels of the annotation hierarchy and synthesize the results back into an annotation of the specified annotationType.
The container type that holds the repeatable annotations will be looked up via java.lang.annotation.Repeatable.
AliasFor semantics are fully supported, both within a single annotation and within annotation hierarchies.
This method follows find semantics as described in the AnnotatedElementUtils.
element - the annotated element (never null)
annotationType - the annotation type to find (never null)
IllegalArgumentException - if the element or annotationType is null, or if the container type cannot be resolved
Return
the set of all merged repeatable Annotations found, or an empty set if none were found
