-This attribute can only be applied the method declarations within a class, and

-This macro is conditionally defined depending on the compiler's support for
-this attribute. If the compiler does not support the attribute the macro

-Operationally, when a method has this annotation the compiler will warn if the
-implementation of an override in a subclass does not call super. For example:

-.. code-block:: objc
