This project allows you to setup Toolisticon flavoured and maven based annotation processor projects.

Project setup can be easily created by using the maven archetype. It will setup a working annotation processor project including

• api submodule that declares all annotations
• Annotation processor submodule including unit tests examples
• example submodule

You just need to create the project by using te following maven command

mvn archetype:generate \
	-DarchetypeGroupId=io.toolisticon.maven.archetypes \
	-DarchetypeArtifactId=annotationprocessor-archetype \
	-DarchetypeVersion=0.10.0 \
	-DgroupId=<your processor projects group id> \
	-DartifactId=<your processor projects artifact id> \
	-Dversion=<your version number> \
	-Dpackage=<your processor projects base package> \
	-DannotationName=<the name of your annotation that should be processed>

Pojo classes you want to create a builder for must be annotated with the Builder annotation.

One hint: some IDEs doesn't work properly with annotation processors. This is usually caused by incremental builds or insufficient configuration. A simple workaround is to build from command line inbetween, usually generated classes will be picked up automatically from the target folder afterwards.

We welcome any kind of suggestions and pull requests.

The archetype is built using Maven. A simple import of the pom in your IDE should get you up and running. To build the archetype on the commandline, just run mvn or mvn clean install

The likelihood of a pull request being used rises with the following properties:

• You have used a feature branch.
• You have included a test that demonstrates the functionality added or fixed.
• You adhered to the code conventions.
