@Target(value={FIELD,METHOD,ANNOTATION_TYPE})
public @interface Nested

Marks a field as a nested object to be constructed with the values of the current row. It is expected that the annotated attribute is of a type, or provides an explicit type via the type() option, that contains one or more Parsed annotations. The given type and its Parsed annotations will determine which fields from each row should be used to populate the Nested instance.
