What's the name of annotations that appear in square brackets before a variable declaration? What API should I use to retrieve their value? They look like this:

[source]

[parameter, minimum=0.0, maximum=10.0]

float RotationSpeed;

[/source]

I call it meta data. It's not part of the core script engine, but the CScriptBuilder add-on has an implementation that you can use to retrieve this information.
