bld Tips & Tricks

Annotation processors are easy to use with bld. Generally, you'll just need to include the processor as a dependency, for example: public class ExampleBuild extends Project { public ExampleBuild() { // ... scope(provided) .include(dependency("com.example", "annotator", version(1, 0, 0))); } } If the processor is generating source files, you can easily specify where they should be saved, using the sourceOutput compile option, for example: // Saves generated source files in the build/generated directory. var generated = new File(buildDirectory(), "generated"); var ignore = generated.mkdir(); compileOperation().compileOptions().process(Processing.FULL).sourceOutput(generated); To incorporate the generated source code into the source tree, add this directory as an additional source location in your IDE.

bld advocacy ideas

@ethauvin that was one of my takeaways from that Reddit thread a while ago. Many people seem to just look at the code verbatim and do a direct comparison, not taking into account what the implications are and how it actually can be used. It's a really tough nut to crack when trying to show of what's possible with bld imho.
