```
    The processing action of this processor. If an annotation is given which is not supported false is returned.
    
    Parameters:
    
    info - the Info class that should be filled with the information read
    
    annotation - the annotation to process
    
    target - the target (Field, Class, etc.) of the given annotation
    
    Returns:
    
    true, if the annotation was processed successfully, false if not
    
    Throws:
    
    AnnotationTargetException - if an annotation is used in a context that is not valid.
