Using external generators (ebean finder-generator)

[Micael Pedrosa]

So, I want to use an external generator integrated with AA. Instead of using maven plugins or javaagents, can I fire the generator in the AA lifecycle?

The requirement is to have the *.class file for the external generator, can I use it in AA phase 4 "doGenerateCode" ? Do I have the compiled file in this phase?

Also, does it compile the generated java file after this phase, or can I fire the compiler manualy?

Hi Micael,

during doGenerateCode also the java files are being generated. So you don't have them there.

However, the ASTs (ClassDeclaration, etc.) are available in that phase.

If you need access to the *.class you need to do it in a downstream project.

And even then the AA don't have the upstream classes on their classpath, but again only the declaration models.
