035 * RESTful method annotation to be used for the FHIR <a
036 * href="http://hl7.org/implement/standards/fhir/http.html#tags">Tag
037 * Operations</a> which have to do with adding tags.
038 * <ul>
039 * <li>
040 * To add tag(s) <b>to the given resource
041 * instance</b>, this annotation should contain a {@link #type()} attribute
042 * specifying the resource type, and the method should have a parameter of type
043 * {@link IdDt} annotated with the {@link IdParam} annotation, as well as 
044 * a parameter of type {@link TagList}. Note that this {@link TagList} parameter
045 * does not need to contain a complete list of tags for the resource, only a list
046 * of tags to be added. Server implementations must not remove tags based on this
047 * operation.
048 * Note that for a
049 * server implementation, the {@link #type()} annotation is optional if the
050 * method is defined in a <a href=
051 * "https://hapifhir.io/hapi-fhir/docs/server_plain/resource_providers.html"
052 * >resource provider</a>, since the type is implied.</li>
053 * <li>
054 * To add tag(s) on the server <b>to the given version of the
055 * resource instance</b>, this annotation should contain a {@link #type()}
056 * attribute specifying the resource type, and the method should have a
057 * parameter of type {@link IdDt} annotated with the {@link VersionIdParam}
058 * annotation, <b>and</b> a parameter of type {@link IdDt} annotated with the
059 * {@link IdParam} annotation, as well as 
060 * a parameter of type {@link TagList}. Note that this {@link TagList} parameter
061 * does not need to contain a complete list of tags for the resource, only a list
062 * of tags to be added. Server implementations must not remove tags based on this
063 * operation.
