    Throws:
    
    java.lang.Throwable
  - beforeContainerProximity
```
default int beforeContainerProximity()
```
    The higher the value, the closer to the actual property methods, i.e. the later it will be run. Default value is 0.
    Values greater than -10 will make it run after methods annotated with BeforeContainer, values smaller than -10 will make it run before.
    
    Returns:
    
    an integer value
  - compareTo
