Custom Annotation and Generator

Say I have a custom annotation that looks like the following:

@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)

@Target(ElementType.TYPE)

@Component                                          

public @interface MyComponent {

String value() default "";

}

A class that is annotated as follows:

@MyComponent 

  private static class TestClass {

  }

And in the generator I am trying to find if the TestClass has the annotation @Component

if(clazz.isAnnotationPresent(Component.class))

   return clazz.getAnnotation(Component.class);

However this doesn't work in GWT.

The question is should this work???? 

Or do I have to create an abstract class and use @inheritance for this to work???
