/**
 * An expression with this type evaluates to an integral value (byte, short, char, int, or long) in
 * the given range. The bounds are inclusive. For example, the following declaration allows the 12
 * values 0, 1, ..., 11:
 *
 * <pre>{@code @IntRange(from=0, to=11) int month;}</pre>
 *
 * <p>If only one of the {@code to} and {@code from} fields is set, then the other will default to
 * the max/min value of the type of the variable that is annotated. (In other words, the defaults
 * {@code Long.MIN_VALUE} and {@code Long.MAX_VALUE} are used only for \code{long}; appropriate
 * values are used for other types.)
