## Annotation Type PreMatching

-     @Target(value=TYPE)
      @Retention(value=RUNTIME)
      @Documented
      public @interface PreMatching

  Global binding annotation that can be applied to a `container request filter` to indicate that such filter should be applied globally on all resources in the application before the actual resource matching occurs.

  The JAX-RS runtime will apply the filters marked with the `@PreMatching` annotation globally to all resources, before the incoming request has been matched to a particular resource method. Any `named binding annotations` will be ignored on a component annotated with the `@PreMatching` annotation.
