Annotation Interface TypeName

@Target(TYPE) @Retention(RUNTIME) public @interface TypeName
Annotation to assign a logical type name to events. Kalix needs to identify each event in order to deliver them to the right event handlers. If a logical type name isn't specified, Kalix will use the fully qualified class name. Once an event is persisted in Kalix, you won't be able to rename your class if no logical type name has been specified, as Kalix won't be able to recognize previously persisted events. Therefore, we recommend all event classes use a logical type name.
