===== Declaring stereotype with `@Priority`

A stereotype may declare a `@Priority` annotation which functions as a means of enabling and ordering affected alternatives, interceptors, and decorators (in {cdi_full}).

If a bean declares two different stereotypes that declare different priority values, the bean must explicitly declare a `@Priority` annotation. If the bean does not explicitly declare priority, the container automatically detects the problem and treats it as a definition error.

If a bean explicitly declares priority, any priority values declared by stereotypes are ignored.

Following sample shows a stereotype that can be used to mark bean as globally enabled alternative:

[source, java]
----
@Alternative
@Priority(Interceptor.Priority.APPLICATION + 5)
@Stereotype
@Target(TYPE)
@Retention(RUNTIME)
public @interface Mock {}
