Display.java

import java.lang.annotation.ElementType;
import java.lang.annotation.Retention;
import java.lang.annotation.RetentionPolicy;
import java.lang.annotation.Target;

@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
@Target(ElementType.METHOD)

@interface MyAnnotation
{
    public String name();

    public String value();
}

public class Display
{
    @MyAnnotation(name = "Country", value = "India")
    public void doSomething()
    {
    }
}

ReflectionDemo1.java

import java.lang.annotation.Annotation;
import java.lang.reflect.Method;

/**

 * Method Annotations Example:

public class ReflectionDemo1
{
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        try
        {
            Class<Display> classObj = Display.class;
            Method method = classObj.getMethod("doSomething", null);
            /*
             * Returns:annotations present on this element           * 
             */
            Annotation[] annotationArray = method.getAnnotations();
            
            for (Annotation annotation : annotationArray)
            {
                if(annotation instanceof MyAnnotation)
                {
                    MyAnnotation myAnnotation = (MyAnnotation)annotation;
                    System.out.println("name: "+myAnnotation.name());
                    System.out.println("value: "+myAnnotation.value());
                }
            }
        }
        catch (NoSuchMethodException | SecurityException e)
        {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

}

Output

name: Country
value: India
