Annotation Interface RestrictedPageable

@Target(PARAMETER)
@Retention(RUNTIME)
@Documented
public @interface RestrictedPageable

Marks a Pageable controller method parameter as subject to field-level sorting restrictions.

When applied, the pageable argument is validated so that sorting is only allowed on entity fields explicitly annotated with Sortable. Entity metadata and alias mappings are resolved from WebQuery on the same controller method.

This annotation does not affect pagination parameters such as page number or page size. It only governs which fields may be used in sort query parameters.

The validation is enforced by a custom HandlerMethodArgumentResolver before the controller method is invoked.

Example usage:

 @GetMapping
 @WebQuery(entityClass = User.class)
 public Page<User> search(
     @RestrictedPageable Pageable pageable
 ) {
     ...
 }
