The following code:

    [Target({ ElementType.FIELD, ElementType.PARAMETER })]
    [Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)]
    public interface Demo : Annotation {
    }

    [StaticClass]
    public class Main {

        public static void main( [Deprecated][Demo] String[] args){
            System.out.println("DONE");
        }
    }

generate de "Deprecated" annotation, but is not generating the "Demo" 
annotation.

I compiled your code and the annotations are both generated.

I found the issue, the annotations are not being generated on constructors, 
delegates and interfaces for example:

    [Target({ ElementType.FIELD, ElementType.PARAMETER })]
    [Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)]
    public interface Demo : Annotation {
    }

    delegate void D([Deprecated][Demo] int i);

    public interface Test {
        void foo([Deprecated][Demo] int i);
    }

    public class Main {

        public Main( [Deprecated][Demo] String[] args){
            System.out.println("DONE CONSTRUCTOR");
        }

        public static void main( [Deprecated][Demo] String[] args){
            System.out.println("DONE");
        }
    }

only the static main method is annotated.

It should work in all cases now.
