# @common:operation Annotation

Specifies that the associated method or callback on the component (e.g., a web service or a control) is available for clients to invoke.

Note: In WebLogic Workshop 7.0, web service operations were designated with the @jws:operation annotation. This annotation is still supported in JWS files for backward compatibility.

## Syntax

## Attributes

## Remarks

The following rules apply to this annotation's use:

- Only one @common:operation annotation may appear within a single Javadoc comment block.
- Must appear on each method or callback that is to be exposed to the client.
- The method or callback must be public.
