A possibly interesting OSS contribution by Red Hat, APT-based introspection

[Tatu Saloranta]

A quick note: OSS folks at RedHat have been working on something that
aims to do Jackson processing for XML without using runtime
introspection, using APT (compile-time annotation processing), and
shared info with me.
The reason for trying to avoid annotation processing is

Repo is at:

https://github.com/treblereel/jackson-xml

and while I don't quite yet understand much about it (and have some
questions on how it would actually relate to Jackson as-is), I thought
I should share this in case anyone is looking for an oss project to
check out.
I think their plan was to work on counterparts for other formats,
specifically json and yaml.

The reason for trying to avoid annotation processing is

Is _ ?

Curious about the reason - I have my thoughts of course, but there isn't much in the way of documentation out for the project yet.

I think their primary driver is for native code execution (where Java
gets compiled or transpiled into something without full reflection
available), although secondary usage could be on platforms like
Android where performance of reflection for introspection is
horrendous (and esp. so for startup cost).

With a quick look my main concern with this project is that I am not
clear how this would actually tie in with Jackson since I think they
started with what amounts to a fork. I definitely would not want to
add another separate codebase, but if design itself could be adopted,
or some ideas, maybe there is something usable.
