Simple Annotation Reader

A simple annotation reader that parses class and property annotations into arrays

• @Foo becomes ['foo']
• @foo(arg1,arg2) becomes ['foo'=>['arg1','arg2']]
• @foo(x=y,arg1) becomes ['foo' => ['x' => 'y', 'arg1']]

Requirements

Annotations must:

• be placed on a new line
• start with an '@'
• start inside a comment block, started with /** and ending with */
• be case insensitive. All annotations are converted to lowercase.
• Not be deeper than one level, e.g. @foo(type=bar) is valid, whilst @foo(type=[x=y]) is not valid.
